Broke Neck Blues - Angry Man Blues (feat. The Broke Neck Reds) Lyrics

Sometimes there just isn't any reason
At least not one we can understand
Things around us, they just happen
Outside of our command

Some call it the hand of almighty God
Some fools call it fate
Some say the universe unfolds as it should
Some say them's the brakes

But what I know is that it hurts so much
Without you here with me
Life was hard enough before
How do I go on now that it's just me

We went to church most Sundays
We tithed and said our prayers
But now when I read my Bible
Where you are, I still know not where

I talked to Brother Richard,
I told him about my doubts
He told me that he understood,
Then about Thomas and his doubts

But this ain't nothing like that,
Thomas doubted the risen Christ
I question the unfairness of it all
The senseless loss of my wife

I pray for understanding
I pray for her soul of my own
But God knows I'm one angry man
Just doing the best that I can
