No Response

Maybe this song necessarily isn't about not believing in God, but questioning the intentions of religion itself. They don't have the answers to the yoke religion places on spirituality, and are tired of always being told the answers. Maybe the part about "imaginary friends" refers to the people who pretend to care about us, but only serve to judge us, and leave us hanging in the end. Though I find it hard to believe that Mute Math, being a Christian band would write something necessarily questioning the existence of God. It more or less sounds to me like He's fed-up with all the multi-faceted hypocrisy and legalism that often consumes the very soul of the Church.

haha.. awesome! true atheïst lyrics at it's essence.

To me this sounds like a lack of confidence, as thepianominstrel commented on. Like they're not sure any god exists. They don't have the answers. This album in general sounds like it's speaking to the uncertainty of these times, and maybe something Paul has been going through? Just a rough time.

"We'll ask imaginary friends Why no response" Personally I don't think there's much room for interpretation here, this is hardcore about doubting the existence of God - and not just doubting, but pretty much giving up

I think he means peace instead of piece. Perhaps this is a commentary on Christianity and who can really be the judge except for God. He's been taught to "speak his peace in the dark" meaning prayer, perhaps? Just a thought

I don't think this is in any way thoughts in giving up on God. If anything it confirms it. Paul Meany was quoted in the book The Art of Being: "I have come to realize that my own identity is not black-and-white; I am not easy to categorize. And if I choose to ignore the gray areas of life, I choose to ignore reality and, more important, the truth of who I am. Of course, many people would say, "Stand for something or you'll fall for anything." Even the Bible says, "No man can serve two masters" (Matthew 6:24, ASV). But while God may hate a lukewarm heart, I've found Him to be very present in the grayness of my existence. . ."

Love the beat on this one. And the gunfight I won in my head.

I'm disappointed by the mild post-modernism feel of this song... "tell me what is wrong and right / I don't suppose that anybody knows / And maybe when we reach the end / We'll ask imaginary friends / Why no response"

It almost sounds like he's saying that he's not getting any answers about absolute truth and if there's no God responding then when we get to the end we'll have to ask imaginary friends... It's a strange interpretation given what I know about MuteMath, but it's the only thing I'm getting from it... a disappointing contrast to the subtle confidence of "Control" or "Chaos"
