lyrics

I heard there's a hurricane
coming towards New York
and I wondered if you're panicked
or hiding in the attic
There was a man on the internet
who said God was showing His judgment
it had something to do with Israel
and homosexuals

Hey God what's your name again?
I think I saw it on the side of a concession stand
selling Bibles and pictures of presidents
whose names are no longer relevant
I punched myself over and over again
wanting so much to just feel something
It's so hard to be without sin
and still be homosapien

The difficult illusion of the God I'll never know
the infinite pollution of my uncanny soul
is mimicking choreography of the falling snow
Oh my God, it's been a while
You never say hello
