"Internet Religion" lyrics

"Internet Religion"

Death and guns and beating the gay kids up
It doesn't happen to you so why give a fuck
If you can go online just to become
The identity that you construct?
Yeah! Let's warp the standard of beauty
So none of our little sisters want to eat!
Yeah! That's fucking cool and it's a pity
We can't Facetune personality

This is my internet religion
This is my ego's exhibition
This is my political position
This is my internet religion
This is my internet religion
This is my ego's exhibition
This is my aesthetic competition
This is my internet religion

Let me show you all the best parts of my life
My clothes and my phone and the gap in my thighs
My friends own things you can't buy
But all of them are broke and most of them want to die
I'm done saving the world so take a look at these
Cool shoes; take a look at me me me!
Look at all of the places that I've been (I've been in hell)

This is my internet religion
This is my ego's exhibition
This is my political position
This is my internet religion
This is my internet religion
This is my ego's exhibition
This is my aesthetic competition
This is my internet religion

And I like me better when I'm online
I can create myself
If I met the girl that I was online
I'd even date myself
And I like me better when I'm online
I can create myself
If I met the girl that I was online
I'd even date myself

Let me show you all the best parts of my life
My clothes and my phone and the gap in my thighs
My friends own things you can't buy
But all of them are broke and most of them want to die
I'm done saving the world so take a look at these
Cool shoes; take a look at me me me!
Look at all of the places that I've been

This is my internet obsession
This is why the kids have got depression
This is their identity repression
This is my internet obsession
This is my internet obsession
This is why the kids have got depression
This is the reality we live in
This is my internet religion
