about

this is the pro-God version of "Dear God"

God's still relatively unresponsive though

cannot wait for Stevie T to make one of those "how to" videos where he writes like me and makes bad Christian rock with the swear words

lyrics

For sake of divinity, answer me this:
how can You be great, yet be small?
why by the Essence of Music
but have bad musicians for You?
tired of this one-way convo
give me an answer, Lord
is your radio busted, Jesus
am I talking to myself?

nauseating silence
with nothing of note
nauseating nausea
my soul heartwrenched

dear Lord, get it together for all of us
take a firm stand against world pain
why do Your sheep kill good people
push them into incoming traffic
tired of these ambiguities
they're people too, God
fix your fucking radio
am I talking to myself?

nauseating silence
with nothing of note
nauseating nausea
my soul heartwrenched

"and I hear you, I hear you so well
SHUT UP, YOU KID!
everybody's eating at me
Peter in a mannequin
drowned in preservation
you only represent your time
I am timeless, both ancient
I still apply to new knowledge"

nauseating memories
flooding my Vatican gift shop
nauseating apathy
I care and yet I don't
answer me this, God
please say something
I'm tired of my gut misinterpreted
my conscience is not Your voice

"and I hear you, I hear you so well
SHUT UP, YOU KID!
everybody's eating at me
Peter in a mannequin
drowned in preservation
you only represent your time
I am timeless, both ancient
I still apply to new knowledge"
