I'm not gonna be your chaplain any longer
To whatever it is you think I think
About God or whatever
But I am a small fish in great big water
How can I exist outside my relativistic culture
When it's within me, it's without me
Without you and all those bands we listened to
Who fought tooth and nail to suspend our disbelief
So where are you gonna go with those big questions on your brain
Where are you gonna go when the wanderlust runs the length of your vein
You may think you're leaving nothing but your thin belief behind

But there's more than one way to hang a narrow frame, babe
And there's more than one way to take the name in vain, this is know
There's more than one way to hang a narrow frame
Around, around the mind

I'm not gonna be your little precious moment lamb
Your hashtag blessed, yellow-pressed, gaslit yes man
I wanna be the stigmata marks for you to touch with sticky fingers, son
I'll be waiting for your call, we can talk all about old Sufjan Stevens songs
And what we all had right and wrong back then,
At prayer meetings in our parents' basements, when
We were naive, when we were sincere,
It's so easy to believe that we were just faking it

But there's more than one way to hang a narrow frame, babe
And there's more than one way to take the name in vain, this I know
There's more than one way to throw your body at the flames
Toward Gehenna or streets of gold
There's more than one to way to invite a life of pain
Spit out or eat the bitter scroll
There's more than one way to hang a narrow frame
Around, around the mind

The strife of tongues
And strutting thighs
Clickbait bitrate
Catechize
The minds of old and young
Flee from the wrath to come
Kyrie eleison
Invisible chatroom and the DRC
Dot-com boom of human trafficking
With bodies on the web
Our hidden sins entangle everyone
Kyrie eleison
Red letter left
Leaning type or
Red heifers for
End times sacrifice
The plain reading of the text
We cannot agree upon
Kyrie eleison
I'm not gonna be your chaplain any longer
I have skin in the game
And blood on the altar
