about

I got to thinking one day about how focused our society is on what is convenient. Oddly enough, I got going on this train of thought while stopping at a 7 Eleven. We have convenience stores and say people can do things at their convenience. Society aborts children because they would be an inconvenience. People have dozens of entertainment devices with content on demand in order to be convenient to their lives. Ultimately, society worships convenience almost as much as it worships self. Jesus said that the path that leads to destruction is broad and many find it. The path to Hell is convenient. The alternative is challenging.

lyrics

you worship convenience like you worship yourself
making it simple to meander to Hell
pray to convenience “Make life easy to bear”
but no reply comes because your god doesn’t care
make votive your health to the god you adore
pray at the temple of his eponymous stores
the gift of your god is filth on demand
‘til you die of inertia – remote in your hand
alas for the master, alas for the god
convenience save us from toil or lack
alas for the master, alas for the fraud
what will you do when The Truth comes back?
in utero children sacrificed in his name
they were inconvenient, but we still bear the shame
cell phone collisions, SMS homicide
our comfort is fleeting, but convenience abides
