Lyrics
Quit talking to God if your prayers don't get answered
Encouraging to stop communicating with God if prayers seem unanswered or unnoticed.
Or if you don't exactly notice when they do
Suggesting awareness of answered prayers and the importance of acknowledging them.
Quit taking the jobs that rob you of your powers
Advising against jobs that diminish personal power for the sake of acquiring unnecessary possessions.
So you can buy more shit you don't have time to use
Criticizing the accumulation of possessions that lack practical use due to a busy lifestyle.
Quit hanging around in this air conditioned town
Criticizing a life spent in a technology-driven, disconnected environment.
Where your life is lived up hunched over your phone
Highlighting the negative impact of excessive phone use on one's posture and well-being.
You're gonna have to quit everything, until you find one thing you won't
Emphasizing the need to give up various aspects of life until discovering a meaningful pursuit.
Quit living in the past if all you end up doing
Discouraging dwelling in the past and merely apologizing without meaningful actions.
Is practicing apologies you won't make
Cautioning against drinking to cope with emotions and avoiding confronting underlying issues.
Quit filling up your glass if it's mixing and churning
Warning against committing sins repeatedly and downplaying their significance.
With the feelings you are trying to escape
Questioning the importance of absolving sins and the timing of such actions.
Quit committing these sins and absolving them again
(Refrain)
As if it matters when you do or when you don't
Advising to stop turning to words and writing if it feels like an empty expression.
You're gonna have to quit everything, until you find one thing you won't
Criticizing insincere promises of forever, especially in short-term relationships.
Quit turning to words and putting pen on paper
(Refrain)
If it feels like you're just putting black on white
Rejecting the idea that the world can be neatly divided into facts, emphasizing life's complexity.
Quit telling these girls their ideas about forever
Encouraging the exploration of life beyond factual divisions and embracing its fluidity.
When you only plan to know them for a night
Criticizing the triviality of short-term relationships and the emptiness of fleeting connections.
Quit wasting my time because pretty soon you'll find
Emphasizing the finite nature of time and the importance of meaningful pursuits.
It's the only thing of value that we own
(Refrain)
You're gonna have to quit everything, until you find one thing you won't
Rejecting the idea that the world can be neatly divided into facts, emphasizing life's complexity.
Quit trying to act like the world breaks into facts
Highlighting the need to quit various aspects of life until discovering a meaningful pursuit.
When life itself is swimming through your bones
Emphasizing the inherent vitality of life, contrasting it with the attempt to simplify it into facts.
You're gonna have to quit everything, until you find one thing you won't
(Refrain)
You're gonna have to quit everything, until you find one thing you won't
(Repetition of the need to quit various aspects until finding a meaningful pursuit.)
