Life is bigger- than you; me- you treading mire choosing these heavy eyed tragedies over religion me holding on so tightly to that comforting distance always- In my eyes the comedy is that I'm losing these confessions once spoken- I say so much under covers throwing faith  at empathetic shadows. Can't we hear our better demons? Feel sympathies? God's abandoned as we protest a dismal fantasy over truth- and off our knees we use cold notions of what's "real"... like fools- Our ironic hint towards the centuries as we lose our religion- trading flaws for other flaws Pretending all the time God was just a dream.

Michael Stipes (losing our religion)
Life is bigger- than you; me- you treading mire choosing these heavy eyed tragedies over religion me holding on so tightly to that comforting distance always- In my eyes the comedy is that I'm losing these confessions once spoken- I say so much under covers throwing faith  at empathetic shadows. Can't we hear our better demons? Feel sympathies? God's abandoned as we protest a dismal fantasy over truth- and off our knees we use cold notions of what's "real"... like fools- Our ironic hint towards the centuries as we lose our religion- trading flaws for other flaws Pretending all the time God was just a dream.
