| Fairmont – It’s Not Rain, God Is Spitting On Us Lyrics

|
This song is along the lines of How Summer Tour Turned me into an Atheist, it mentions a drummer in the first line which is supposed to be a reference to Pencey Prep's drummer as Sabatino felt no animosity towards him at the time and felt he was just caught in the crossfire. The song is a statement about things not going your way, which he felt was true for himself and the drummer of Pencey at the time. |

The first song written for Fairmont by Sabatino. All about feelings of doubt as Sabatino was on his final tour with Pencey Prep, deciding if he should start a new band or try to work it out. Inspired by a Christian band that Pencey Prep had played with this song is a bitter retort aimed at them and Sabatino's former friends in Pencey stating that there is no god or plan in this universe because at that moment it seemed his world was crashing down around him. |
