Lyrics:
It’s a series of bars, thrift stores and churches lining the streets, while women with gold crosses push kids into half-formed beliefs. If Lot was righteous than I think I’d rather not be. We lean on fences built from out-dated morality. It’s a gang mentality. It’s a dangerous thing. They don’t ask you to think, just to repeat after me and assume you’re too careless to look at it critically. You’ll stop progress if it contradicts what you’re told to believe. I refuse to spend life on my knees. These billboards flaunt these scare tactics make me think you’re only good if you’re afraid of being punished and every single Sunday, church bells wake me up, but it’s never enough to pull me out of bed. The church over on Main Street has got its doors painted red and I guess it’s so the Angel of Death passes over it on its way to get gas. The church over on Broad Street has got a neon sign that says Jesus Save Me and I guess it’s so god can see from where he is in the cheap seats. I refuse to spend life on my knees and I won’t let somebody else make my decisions for me. If we’re all just Christians or Lions, then I think I’d rather be on the side with sharper teeth. I don’t need saving.
