I Don't Keep With Liars Anymore Lyrics
I see right through you when you sing it back to me
I read that fine print and I saw you staggering
Regurgitate the shit you find in the dirty dreams of a rapist’s mind
Congratulate the corpse you drag
Put the money in the body bag right in front of us
The stop and start machine
You’ve been singing with a liar’s tongue
With every crippled word you said to me
With every fractured breath and broken glare
You were pawning off your babies’ debt with a cold paycheck
Abandon what you built
Repair your hope with guilt
There’s nothing left here to suffocate
With razor wire arms you reach and miss the throat
There’s nothing left to love about this city anymore
The politics and the hired whore
Now, save your breath
Now, into your mouth
Did this to yourself
You can’t repair the punctured lung
Secrets seep through the stress cracks
Shut your mouth
I read the fine print
Now shut your mouth
You did this to yourself
Now shut your mouth and pay the rent
You say it like your life depends on believing your own lie
I see right through you when you sing it, sing it back to me
Now, say it like your life depends on believing your own lie
I read that fine print and I saw you staggering
Regurgitate the shit you find in the dirty dreams of a rapist’s mind
Congratulate the corpse you drag
Put the money in the body bag right in front of us
You’ve been singing with a liar’s tongue
With every crippled word you said to me
With every fractured breath and broken glare
You were pawning off your babies’ debt with a cold paycheck
Repair your hope with guilt
There’s nothing left here to suffocate
With razor wire arms you reach and miss the throat
There’s nothing left to love about this city anymore
The politics and the hired whore
Now, into your mouth
Did this to yourself
You can’t repair the punctured lung
Secrets seep through the stress cracks
Shut your mouth
I read the fine print
Now shut your mouth
You did this to yourself
Now shut your mouth and pay the rent
I see right through you when you sing it, sing it back to me
Now, say it like your life depends on believing your own lie

I really can't believe there are no comments on this song.
"I Don't Keep With Liars Anymore." Sounds like someone's converting to Atheism/Agnosticism.
I'm pretty sure James is saying that religion is a lie. He seems to be mostly pissed at the fact that the churches are non-profit organizations (they don't have to pay taxes, but they make money from tithes) and/or hypocrites who only have "faith" to keep themselves comfortable and readily controllable. He also suggests that upon a close examination of the Bible, major contradictions and logical fallacies are evident (the "bloody sword" of religion, so to speak).
That's all I got from it. Maybe it's something to do with Adolf Bush. Someone else want to comment?
I agree
I was listening to this while playing Silent Hill 2, with the sound on the game turned off. >_> Ugh. The techno made me want to die even more than the game itself did.
However! - I agree, as well.
