lyrics

God texted back
On the flight home
First thing when we touch down
I switch off flight mode and check my phone
God’s texted back
But was I too slow?

When we first get in
That first vibration
Is the reference pitch
That we’re all tuning in
Then a symphony of relief
A hundred seat belt buckles in unison
Two-hundred feet and creaking seats
For the standing ovation
Stuck stood an inch in front
Hunched over the seats we’ve been sitting in
So I text him back
‘We just touched down
Guess I’m back home for now’

Is that all you can say?
No wait
Is that all you can say?
No way, no way

When God hit me up
In the first place
For the first time
I was timid and polite
All i could think to reply was
‘What’s on for the weekend?’
Because I don’t know what I’m doing with my life
‘What’s on for the weekend?’
Because I don’t know what I’m doing with mine

God’s rugged but well-dressed
God’s worn like a VHS
Full of warmth and charm
Retain the form restored to hi-def







Caught a movie that evening
Filmed the cinema screen on his iPhone
Streaming it back to God’s smart TV when we were back home
And that was it
That was that
Dear God
God hit me back
Please God

Is that all you can say?
No wait
Is that all you can say?
No way, no way

When I was a kid
All I wanted was an answer
If God gives you an inch you’d better run with it
And it runs in reverse
Time runs in reverse
And watching back the highlights is a blessing and a curse
Again
I know how it ends
Again and again
I know what’s gonna happen ‘cause I’ve seen how it begins
A million vacant faces
Two-million love-struck eyes
And my adult teeth
Thirty-two in a line
Strung out like a necklace
Ear-to-ear ‘til the day I die
Until they go back in
They burrow back in
And when I hit the beginning
I just turn around again
