about

From the original liner notes: "It's scary how some completely twisted mass-reality-constructs are actually nurtured by society." One of the first songs I ever wrote (cringe...), but it's a true story about encountering some fundamentalist nutcases. Recorded at Reciprocal, 1987.

lyrics

I went to find myself salvation
But nothing they said made sense to me
Strange things were happening everywhere I looked
People were talking in tongues
"Guilt by existence" they seemed to all say
Pointing their fingers at me

Nothing made sense
Leave me alone
What could I do
But stand up and be on my way

I went to find myself salvation
But people tried to take $ from me
They wouldn't let me have any fun at all
Everything seemed to be WRONG
Oddly enough though I tried to be cool
They seemed to be scared of my mind

Nothing made sense
Leave me alone
What could I do
But stand up and be on my way

I went to find myself salvation
But these crazy people wouldn't let me exist
People around me were ranting and raving
Seemed that my whole life was sin
The only way I could satisfy them
Was to turn off my brain and give in

Nothing made sense
Leave me alone
What could I do
But stand up and be on my way
