lyrics

Dear tenant of the apartment above,

I do alright without your love,
I'm unaware if you even stay here.
I have yet to hear your voice,
but your fucking friends!
They always do what they can
to make their fair share of noise.
Punch-drunk off blood-red wine
and a sense of self satisfaction
less than divine.
Consideration is kind, but
as you should know
I've made it this far just fine.

The absence of god will
make room for all that I've got.
Thanks a lot but the kind of
care I need can't be bought.
I will not sing your praises on my knees
I could never be that weak.
Do you think I forgot all that I have done for me?
I am he who has kept me on my feet.
So you can have your holy cow.
It wouldn't take a faithful firing squad
to shoot me holier that thou,
(Thou) shalt not watch me pray another
day in vain.

Even if those days, still, the questions did remain
Like why when I'm looking out my window,
all I see is pane.
Elect to pay off your debts in the form of
collections to avoid feeling unwhole?
I lament to present you that you're merely
filling a void with a (hole).
Hold the phone!
Know, with jehovah as a co-pilot, you fly alone
Go! Get irreverently stoned.
Rocks at the throne.
