You're mad at God for not existing
and you fucked yourself by not insisting
On a little bit more to go on in his stead
something to quell the voice in your head
Someone to keep you from ending up dead
Well you did your time in school as you were told
but those venerable halls got very old
Not one single soul on whom you could depend
that's not what one expects of their friends
Aw but no one expects to come to these ends
You've got to take every insult as an opportunity
To show your innate ability to turn the other cheek
You're seeing shadows for ghosts on the wall of your cave
coming off like a child who don't know how to behave
There's no one after you in particular man
We conjure these things when we don't understand
We pawn off the blame on the unseen hand
When you give into your fear you've met their demands
There's some clarity to had in just refusing the dance
And if they still string you up with the rest of the damned
There's some peace to be had in knowing you didn't waste the time you had reacting instead of just taking a stand
You running is part of their plan
You've got to take every insult as an opportunity
To show your innate ability to turn the other cheek
Every slight as just a sign from another soul in need
