Get God's Attention By Being An Atheist

  • Contextualizing the metal bibliotheque, as if to say, "I am the redeemer"
    Where "alpaca" is the most practical safe word to end an El General song
    You translated Eden, Eden, Eden, tears falling on your French to English dictionary
    While I read Gary Indiana's Horse Crazy next to your sex toy shaped like a pink banana

    We don't wanna be safe, we want experience, we want it louder
    It's crushing our ears, we don't give a fuck, we want it louder
    Loud enough to destroy the talismans of our depressions
    We don't wanna be safe, we want experience, we want it louder

    It's good to look in your eyes knowing your eyes aren't the boredom of the soul
    Because they high kick me like Sly Stone on the cover of Fresh (Fresh)
    We're all winners and everything's cool, we're gonna be okay 'cause we're special
    Anyway, I thrive on racing thoughts that would drive other breeders totally mental

    We don't wanna be safe, we want experience, we want it louder
    It's crushing our ears, we don't give a fuck, we want it louder
    Loud enough to destroy the talismans of our depressions
    We don't wanna be safe, we want experience, we want it louder

    I'm only trying to get God's attention by being an atheist
    If we could transcend linear time think of what it would do to our inhibitions

    We don't wanna be safe, we want experience, we want it louder
    It's crushing our ears, we don't give a fuck, we want it louder Writer/s: Kevin Barnes
