So many folks I used to know
I don't wanna know who they are now
So many places I used to go
Attack me with panic when I come around
Those who grew up with me in the cult
I wanna walk through you talk through you
We're all now fully grown adults
Why am I terrified to talk to you
They were micromanaging our friends
Telling us skateboarding is sin
Telling ya we should kneel about it
Lemme ask how you feel about it
Basketball- that shit was fine 
Cause the preacher used to dunk like a boss
And Jesus turned water into wine but alcohol is the devil's sauce

Here is the church
Here is the steeple
Open the door
Believe all the people
I'm afraid of fire
I'm gonna be a martyr
I'm gonna get my ducks in a row before departure

Here is the cult
Your ornamented evil
Open the door
And be all the people
The hope confused lurch that pumps the beating of my heart
Of we the people set on love on foot and set apart

This is the therapy for the flaws
Twisted dogma spread on like gauze 
I read the Bible was scientific law
I read that in school I learned about god
Defining how something nobody gets
Now gospel music makes my body throw fits
And not the good kind, not like dancing
It's when your body's twitching and you can't scream

They were micromanaging our faults
Memorizing the letters from Paul
Is it cool if I play some ball with my buddies?
As long as you're back in time for Bible study
So many kids I used to know
Spiritual warfare on their mind
By the time I was done with high school 
I read the book of Proverbs a hundred times

Here is the church
Here is the steeple
Open the door
Believe all the people
I'm afraid of fire
I'm gonna be a martyr
I'm gonna get my ducks in a row before departure

Here is the cult
Your ornamented evil
Open the door
And be all the people
The hope confused lurch that pumps the beating of my heart
Of we the people set on love on foot and set apart

Where it all began
The Sunday bell
The promised hell
The second chance

Of we the people set on love, on foot and set apart

Where it all began
The cemetery 
The hospital 
The ambulance

Of we the people set on love, on foot and set apart
Where it all began is the time you decided that this is more than
We the people set on love, on foot and set apart
You understand Pilgrim's Progress in reverse to no man's land

Here is the cult
Your ornamented evil
Open the door
And be all the people
The hope confused lurch that pumps the beating of my heart
Of we the people set on love on foot and set apart
