lyrics

With Tape and Purposeful Hats

Hold your head up in the corner
Keep your roots deep in the ground
Just because those clouds inspire poets
It doesn't mean your body's heaven bound

The room I walk through is slowly sinking
The walls are wet and rot with mold
There is no kingdom not subject to this
There's only so long any brick can hold

Though this world too complex for good an evil
Despite how well it plays out on a stage
I don't need no fear of god inside me
To have compassionate and loving ways

I don't think that god made this for you and me
I don't think that god exists at all
But since we're two flies stuck in a jar let's talk about it
Better that than have our backs up against the wall

Don't base all of your arguments on the bible
Ain't it so that every good book has its day
Won't you please acknowledge that life goes on all around you
There more to reference than what your prophets say

Though this world too complex for good an evil
Despite how well it plays out on a stage
I don't need no fear of god inside me
To have compassionate and loving ways
