Liars
As someone who didn't grow up religious, I can still get pretty heated over this topic. It makes my blood boil often, especially when I speak about it with one of my only Christian friends. He's talking about how he's "struggling" sexually. Not that I want to mention people's private lives, but I'm bringing it up briefly to prove a point.
No one truly practices what they claim to believe in.
Let's go with that example: the whole "masturbation is wrong" bullshit.
Do people actually think they're following that at all? Because something tells...

I Ain't It
I never knew if you existed;
I still don't.
I wanted to believe,
but these days, I can't even pray.
I'm reminded of how I don't measure up
You say don't be unequally yoked;
Well, fuck you, only the skeptics are there for me.
You say don't sleep before marriage;
again, fuck you, ain't believing in that Puritanical bullshit.
If you want me to give you a laundry list,
I have hampers full of reasons
this just ain't cutting it.
What do you even want, Jesus?
Do you want me to tape my mouth
and play the...
I still don't.

Always, a change of plans
Always, a change of plans
Interrupts my tranquil course –
Set forth by circumstances
It appears, for the worse.
I resent it, I begrudge –
It chips away at my mind –
Finally, I'm forced to oblige
And surrender my time
But once by hushed words –
I learned of a blessing:
What seemed a dreadful recourse
Placed me in a better setting.
That's why when the Thief flees
You shouldn't be too upset
For the Divine may be
Watching out for your interest.

Your Well Won't Run Dry
If I was hungry, would ya feed me?
If I was thirsty, would ya lead me to water?
Abba Father
Your Well Won’t Run Dry
Cut locks from my hair
I wouldn’t care
Tear down the pillars
That held me in snare
Due to your Love
I’ll rise above
No one can take You from me
If I was hungry, would ya feed me?
If I was thirsty, would ya lead me to water?
Abba Father
Your Well Won’t Run Dry
Out in the field
Worry won’t yield
Put on your armor
Hold up your shield
The Word leads me toward

The prayer from eternal irony
It's so ironic,
O, God.
How you guide me and use my enemies as prophets.
Your care, it confuses yet it soothes the bruises.
Your mercy knows no end.
I could get lost in the depths O Lord!
Show me how to be humble.

True Unconditional Love
Sitting on my porch this morning.
Thinking bout all You have done for me.
I close my eyes,
And picture the spikes going through Your hands,
Then Your feet.
A vision of Your blood dripping down Your face,
I can almost hear Your cries. A shutter goes up my spine as I choke back the tears.
My mind warns me to leave this place,
But my heart says,
No stay here and feel His pain.
Stay here.
This is true unconditional love,
And everything you seek.
Stay here.
This is grace.

Sacrilegious? No! It's doing the right thing for our children
I am Lucifer hear me roar
Hearing dark voices, too loud to ignore
Dopes in pews, who worship air
Weak-minded drones, drowning in despair
Forced abstinence drives spineless blue-ball priests
Alter boy defilers, now it's time to feast
For my tips on how to waste these pricks
Dial me 1-900-666
Pedophile priests who pray on kids
Jesus hates you for what they say you did
The concept is quite simple
Command the flock to procreate
More babies, more Catholics
More money, controlling your fate

Music starts my little church
Music starts my little church
And bids us goers "come forward" -
Timid and cleansing at first -
Bringing voices to one accord
Then her voice waxing loud
And the piano's tempo
Make the atmosphere bound
To become a crescendo
When our song meets Him above
And the sweet chorus repeats.
Did such music greet Asaph
At the foot of heaven's gates?
And bids us goers "come forward" -
Timid and cleansing at first -
Bringing voices to one accord
Then her voice waxing loud
And the piano's tempo
Make the atmosphere bound
To become a crescendo

And the sweet chorus repeats.
Did such music greet Asaph
At the foot of heaven's gates?

My Savior
Newborn awakened
Battle rages within
But the war is over
God has won
Bringing me from
The lowest pits
Of darkness and despair
To see through his eyes
A world full of
Beauty and wonder
I was lost
Walking the tightrope
Of death and destruction
But God was my safety net
Even though I let go of Him
He never let go of me
I was the lost sheep
Blind in the dark
Walking the steep cliffs
Above an unforgiving sea
Yet I was not left behind
Scooped up by my Redeemer
And His...

Manifestor
1st Half
It all starts
With the Magus,
Writhing & reeling
Around a baton -
Or is it a scepter?
Do not be deceived, Oh Juggler!
Thy rod just a royal shtick
For a Fool who waves a wand
And calls himself a Magician
The Emperor fashions an ankh
Believing he creates life itself
But beyond the cards
There is only One Creator;
The rest merely pro-create -
What are you inseminating?
I’m sick, or something?
Perhaps we’re all seriously ill
No cure for a stiff staff infection
Man, I...

The Forever Agnostic
I'm glad I stopped going to church a few weeks ago. I didn't like that the Bible study leader expressed that I was a hypocrite for simply expressing how I felt about the church. He also yelled at me once in a way they he never yelled at anyone else.
I'm convinced that this is not the group for me. That church in general is not for me. I never met a single close friend. The Christians are never the ones who even go out of their way for me. It's always my more skeptical friends who are willing to go in the mud with me. Christians, with their pearly white garments, don't want to look...
