you took a trip
and climbed a tree
at robert sledge's party
and there you stayed
until morning came
and you were not the same after that
you gave your life
to jesus christ
and after all your friends went home
you came down
you looked around
and you were not the same after that
you were not the same after that
you've seen them drop like flies
from the bright sunny skies
they come knocking at your door
with this look in their eyes
you've got one good trick
and you're hanging on
you're hanging on to it
you took the word
and made it heard
and eased the people's pain and for that
you were idolized, immortalized
you were not the same after that
walking tall, you'd bought it all
you were not the same after that
until someone died on the water slide
and you were not the same after that
you were not the same after that
you've seen them drop like flies
from the bright sunny skies
they come knocking at your door
with this look in their eyes
you've got one good trick
and you're hanging on
you're hanging on to it
