Absence of God

Absence of God

The absence of God will bring you comfort, baby

And planning's for the poor so let's pretend that we're rich

And I'm not my body or how I choose to destroy it

Folk singers sing songs for the working, baby


We're just recreation for all those doctors and lawyers

There's no relief for the bleeding heart

'Cause they'll be losing bodies tonight


And Rob says you love, love, love and then you die

I've watched him while sleeping and seen him crying with closed eyes

And you're not happy but you're funny and I'm tripping over my joy

But I just keep on getting up again


We could be daytime drunks if we wanted

We'd never get anything done that way baby

And we'd still be ruled by our dueling perspectives

And I'm not my perspective

Or the lies I'll tell you every time


And Morgan says, maybe love won't let you down

All of your failures are training grounds

And just as your back's turned you'll be surprised she says

As your solitude subsides


And Mike I'll teach you how to swim

If you turn the bad in me into good again


And I say there's trouble

When everything is fine

The need to destroy things

Creeps up on me every time

Just as love's silhouette appears

I close my eyes and disappear tonight


And something's got to change

'Cause our love's the slowest moving train
