The Journal of Max Phineas "Article of Faith" by Minus Ted

When you cannot find the twinkle of your lucky star
And the constellations won't reveal your place
When your compass is wavering
And you don't know who you are
Believing is an article of faith.
When you know that change is coming and it's finally time
And desperation guides the chances that you take
When you've used up all your choices
And you are shooting blind
Tomorrow is an article of faith.
Get back to your cloud tops
You angels of woe.
I know you'd like to fly me
To a darker place.
If angels see everything
You should already know
I'm just one breath ahead of you today.
Like accidental children careening off of walls
Disappointment leaves the spirit in a heap.
Everybody climbs the mountain and everybody falls
But you decide the sacraments you keep.
So get back to your cloud tops
You angels of woe.
I know you'd like to fly me
To a darker place.
If angels see everything
You should already know
I'm just one breath ahead of you today.
When you cannot find the twinkle of your lucky star
And the constellations won't reveal your place
When your compass is wavering
And you don't know who you are
Believing is an article of faith.
Believing is an article of faith.
Believing is an article of faith.
This song sounds religious, but really I see it as being about faith in self, not in God. I am currently Gloomy
