about

Partially inspired by Craig Thompson's beautiful graphic novel "Blankets." Also kind of a thing that happened to me.

lyrics

We met as children.
Grew up Christian.
Grew apart, came together,
fell apart again.
Hung out in high school.
Trying to be cool.
Some things never change,
you know I'm still trying to win.

I've been trying to figure it all out again...
And I think that my best guess
is whatever it was, it was the best.

I found you naked,
shipwrecked, and sacred.
Exposed to a world
you'd never worked out.
I called you martyr.
You called me brother.
Maybe there was hope
and maybe there was doubt.

I've been trying to figure...etc...

I don't know what to make of it.
I've thought about it a lot.

You brought me religion
like an affliction.
The blood poured from my wounds
and sacred heart.
I think I told you.
At least I meant to.
Should've made my case right then
from the very start.

I've been trying to figure...etc...
