Someone Like Jesus Lyrics - New Model Army

I met someone like Jesus 

In the spring of '98 

He was so full of love 

And I was so full of hate 

So I nailed him on a cross 

Where he belonged 

Told myself it's what 

He would have wanted all along 

Then I drove into the night 

Looking for something to burn 

And all those little parables 

That I never cared to learn 

I don't know what the name for this feeling is 

But it's dripping through me 

There's something in the corner of my life 

That I cannot quite see 

And I'm not sleeping well 

Though my dreams are so real 

Dreamt I set fire to my house 

Watched the great beams 

Come crashing down 

There I was standing 

In the ashes of the stairs 

They asked me what happened 

"Was an accident", I said 

I don't know what all this means 

And I don't care, it's nothing to me 

But there was something 

In the corner of that dream 

That I could not quite see 

And I don't know what this feeling is 

But it's dripping through me 

There's something in the corner of my life 

That I cannot quite see 

And there's a happy family snapshot 

When you were very small 

But there were visits from the doctor 

You can't remember what for 

Curtains drawn in silence 

On a summer afternoon 

And the flies 

Buzzing in the room 

You don't know what this feeling is 

And you can't explain it to me 

But there was something 

In the corner of that family photo 

That you cannot quite see 

And I don't know what all this means 

But it's dripping through me 

There's something in the corner of our lives 

That we cannot quite see
