On/Off Switch Lyrics

Like a pair of pants you treat my creator
Take Him off one day and put Him on another
Like clock work you abuse the Savior
Just wait till the right hand strikes at the right time
Your faith is bipolar
Charismatic or ruined based on your pleasure
Why shoot yourself in the foot?
For the very things you run from are the very things you desire
The trials that you flee are the blessings that could be
Your faith is bipolar
Charismatic or ruined based on your pleasure
Embrace God with your head in the clouds
Cloud nine is the one that you're on, but as soon as it rains you're gone
As soon as it rains you're gone
Please stop playing teeter-totter on the cross of God
Please stop playing teeter-totter on the cross of my savior
And the confusion you've caused is not welcome

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

It is about posers who only stick around for the good times but as soon a trial pops its little head up BAM! Said poser is gone.

Really, it makes me think about the struggles I have with aspects in life; how I can act the complete opposite way that I should and then turn around and act all Christiany (for lack of a better word) when I should be struck with lightning or gutted or something.

God is a good God and that's all that needs to be said.
