lyrics

I have a knee jerk reaction every time I hear you use the word faith
at once I'm appalled, semi-curious, but mostly appalled

A gag reflex from every taste of your spiritual goulash
add some pepper sure, but you can't remove any of the salt

You called me an empiricist, you meant it as an insult

It's a rolling of the eyes that I'd describe simply as involuntary
if you had my respect you've lost it, if you had it at all

You called me an empiricist, you meant it as an insult

It's cardiac arrhythmia each time you say a little prayer for me
what's good I know I've earned, but when I fumble that's also my fault

We only speak of faith when we wish to substitute feelings for fact
see so many others fake, or just confuse their symptoms for emotion

I have a natural inclination to escape all conversation about Virgos,
bar hop, change the channel, stay at home, pub crawl

It's a churning of the stomach, gnawing of the teeth, shivers up the spine
binary code: zeroes, ones, do you recall?

You called me an empiricist, you meant it as an insult

We only speak of faith when we wish to substitute feelings for fact
see so many others fake, or just confuse their symptoms for emotion
