Read It For Myself

When I opened up the book It was like I was a crook Breakin' in somewhere I shouldn't have been It was a violation What was I thinkin' Like a robber with a gun Breakin' in to see the sun Then when I got it What did I find I found I didn't like it I wish I hadn't tried it Nobody told me to read it for myself Nobody told me to read it for myself Thief in the night now I know how it felt Nobody told me to read it for myself The thief on the cross Could have easily been me When they told me I was wrong I just agreed But then I started to doubt And try to figure it out I opened the door But I didn't like what I found A snake on the floor And a thief in the night Nobody told me I would be surprised Nobody told me to read it for myself Nobody told me to read it for myself Thief in the night now I know how I felt Nobody told me to read it for myself Nobody told me to read it for myself
