[Verse 1]
Dear Preacher, thanks for making time for me today
I hope you don't mind if I hide behind the curtain
It's been fifteen years since my last confession
By your good book's standards I sinned like a champion
But that book seems a tad bit outdated
[Verse 2]
Please forgive me for questioning divinity
It's an ugly job, but I think I'm up for it
I'm not saying who's right, I'm just saying
There's more than one way to skin a religion
There's more than one way to explain our existence
[Verse 3]
Reverend, sir, I don't want to seem irreverent
My teenage angst is far behind me
But Father, certainly it's troubling to see
All these people kneeling instead of dealing with the fact
That we're all we have
[Chorus]
So rise up, rise up, there's no one to worship
But plenty of life to lose
I'm not saying, let's burn down the churches
But do you want to hear my confession?
It's my greatest sin
Okay, here it is
