Lyrics
It's so sweet
Expressing satisfaction or enjoyment
The way they're seeing me
Observing how others perceive the speaker
It's the worst kind of evil when everybody thinks it's good
Criticizing the perception that what everyone thinks is good is actually evil
And I know
Acknowledging personal responsibility
That I am the one to blame for this thing
Accepting blame for a certain situation
When they sharpened their knives they would never ever have believed:
Reflecting on the unexpected consequences of someone's actions
I like to play with gasoline
Admitting a penchant for risky behavior
Thank God I'm an atheist
Expressing gratitude for not believing in a deity
'Cause I don't wanna face my sins
Preferring atheism to avoid confronting personal wrongdoings
I don't know
Expressing uncertainty
It seems pretty clear to me
Asserting a clear perspective on a matter
That heaven is a state of mind
Defining heaven as a state of mind
So thank God I'm an atheist
Reiterating gratitude for being an atheist
'Cause I don't wanna live forever and on
Rejecting the idea of living forever
Just die when it's time for it
Accepting mortality and the inevitability of death
Just fall asleep and disappear
Desiring a peaceful end to life
What's running in your mind deep inside?
Pondering inner thoughts and contemplation
People shopping their values
Criticizing people who prioritize superficial values
Whatever's working out right now
Highlighting the tendency to follow trends rather than understanding values
Instead of figuring them out
Encouraging deeper introspection
Thank God I'm an atheist
Repeating gratitude for atheism
'Cause I don't wanna face my sins
Reiterating the avoidance of facing personal wrongdoing
I don't know
Expressing uncertainty again
It seems pretty clear to me
Reaffirming a clear perspective
That heaven is a state of mind
Repeating the concept of heaven as a state of mind
So thank God I'm an atheist
Expressing gratitude for atheism once more
'Cause I don't wanna live forever and on
Reiterating the rejection of eternal life
Just die when it's time for it
Embracing the idea of a natural end to life
Just fall asleep and disappear
Desiring a peaceful and uneventful passing
I don't wanna be alone tonight
Expressing a desire not to be alone
I'm a child full of life
Embracing the vitality and energy of youth
Am I alone with my thoughts?
Questioning the solitude of one's thoughts
What's the point of it all
Contemplating the purpose of life
If we only keep living this life to get another one?
Critiquing the pursuit of a future life at the expense of the current one
Hold me tight and look me in the eyes full of life
Seeking connection and affirmation
Am I really all alone with my thoughts?
Questioning the loneliness of personal thoughts
What's the point of it all
Reiterating the contemplation of life's purpose
If we only keep living this life to get another one?
Echoing the critique of prioritizing the afterlife over the present
Thank God I'm an atheist
Expressing gratitude for atheism yet again
'Cause I don't wanna face my sins
Repeating the avoidance of facing personal wrongdoing
I don't know
Expressing uncertainty once more
It seems pretty clear to me
Reaffirming a clear perspective again
That heaven is a state of mind
Restating the concept of heaven as a state of mind
So thank God I'm an atheist
Expressing gratitude for atheism one final time
'Cause I don't wanna live forever and on
Reiterating the rejection of eternal life in conclusion
Just die when it's time for it
Embracing the idea of a natural end to life in conclusion
Just fall asleep and disappear
Desiring a peaceful and uneventful passing in conclusion
