Church Porn
forever seemed to long for me
so i chose to make it start today
i went to church, (which is rare for me)
and sadly for you, i ran away.
i sat through the horrible singing
even though it was by a professional choir
it was great going to a concert for free
but God, they have made you a liar
when i tell people i hate Christians
they wonder why if I'm 'one of them'
just keep reading my story
you'll understand by the end
you see, it wasn't that the music was bad
it was all on key and harmonic
but the thing that bothered me
everyone's actions were also melodic
they all swayed in a zombified way
and i tried but i couldn't feel God
i was trapped in the middle of a cult meeting
disguised as a church building squad
all that mattered were the numbers they brought
whether it be people or money
they higher the digits became
the more i found it funny
funny that 'this' is what church has become
funny that 'these' are the holy
funny that 'this' is what they make god
all because they changed him so slowly
the world doesn't hate us because we don't sin
by us i mean those who are saved
they hate us cause you act like you don't
and make them feel like we're enslaved
