Lyrics

You said he's around us

You mentioned the presence of someone

Well, then tell us where?

Requesting information on the whereabouts of that person

'cause you went back to your place

Referring to the return to a personal space or sanctuary

And there was no one

No one was present in that place

To help wipe out the disgrace

No assistance was available to erase the shame or disgrace

Hey you Mr. Priest

Addressing a person assumed to be a priest

If you can speak to god

Challenging the ability to communicate with God

Tell me, did he offer the kids

Questioning if God provided solace to the children who were victims of abuse while the priest prayed for redemption

Who you raped while you

Referencing the act of rape committed by the addressed priest

Prayed for your soul

The contradiction of praying for one's soul while committing heinous acts

God is dead

Assertion that God is non-existent

God is a noise in your head

God is portrayed as a mere disturbance or illusion in the mind

Can he talk to you?

Questioning whether God communicates with the addressed person

Not to me

Personal denial of any communication with God

God is dead

Reiteration of the assertion that God is dead


God is a waste in your brain

God is described as a useless concept in the mind

Can he talk to you?

Questioning the possibility of God communicating with the addressed person

Not to me

Personal denial of any communication with God

You said he'll bring peace

Prompting the addressed person to specify when peace will be brought by God

Well, then tell us when?

Repeating the question of when peace will be established

You expect us to live in fear

Expressing reluctance to live in fear of those who kill in the name of a dead God

Of motherfuckers who kill

Describing individuals who commit murder for a non-existent God

For a god who's dead?

Raising the question of living in fear for a God who is declared dead

You said he'll bring peace

Repeating the inquiry about when peace will be brought by God

Well, then tell us when?

Restating the question of when peace will be established

You expect us to live in fear

Re-emphasizing the reluctance to live in fear of those who kill in the name of a dead God

Of motherfuckers who kill

Reiterating the description of individuals who commit murder for a non-existent God

For a god who's dead?

Reiterating the question of living in fear for a God who is declared dead


God is dead

Reaffirming the statement that God is dead

God is a noise in your head

God is reiterated as a disturbance or illusion in the mind

Can he talk to you?

Questioning whether God communicates with the addressed person

Not to me

Personal denial of any communication with God

God is dead

Reiteration of the assertion that God is dead

God is a waste in your brain

God is described as a useless concept in the mind

Can he talk to you?

Questioning the possibility of God communicating with the addressed person

Not to me

Personal denial of any communication with God

God is dead

Reiteration of the assertion that God is dead

God is a noise in your head

God is reiterated as a disturbance or illusion in the mind

Can he talk to you?

Questioning whether God communicates with the addressed person

Not to me

Personal denial of any communication with God

Not to me
