There are some questions that I've been meaning to ask you I find them swimming around in my brain I know you promise that nothing is beyond you so I better ask before I go insane he goes: why do I do what I don't want to do when I don't do the things that I know I really should do I'm a walking contradiction of things that I do and the things that I say I believe

[CHORUS:]

Well you know the way I want to be and I know cos that's the kind of God you are somehow you can see the beauty in this mess only you can make sense of this madness

Check it out well if it sounds so simple you'd think I 'd understand it maybe it just takes some time for the truth to sink it and I know your mercies are new with every moring so everyday when I pray this prayer all over again he goes: why do I do what I don't want to do when I don't do the things that I know I really should do I'm a walking contradiction of things that I do and the things that I say I believe

[PEPEAT CHORUS(1X)]

This madness only you can make sense of this madness he goes: why do I do what I don't want to do when I don't do the things that I know I really should do I'm a walking contradiction of things that I do and the things that I say I believe

[REPEAT CHORUS(2X)]

Only you can make sense of this madness
Only you can make sense of this madness
