New song and mini-RANT

I wrote this today, and it's called Russian Roulette Romeo.

I have had a few flings

but all of them were bust
Baby, I don't need love
All I need is lust
Take a chance on me, baby
See how hard you fall
And when you finally trust me
You'll probably lose it all

And love doesn't burn like a fire
It glows like dying embers
I'll be your Russian Roulette Romeo
Load another chamber

Don't say I didn't warn you
when you end up all alone
Don't expect me to answer
when you dial up my phone
Because I told you it's over
There's nothing left to say
I'll leave you, bleeding, on the floor
and I'll go my seperate way

And now I'm in your head
And I'll get comfortable, I figure
Your Russian Roulette Romeo
Just up and pulled his trigger

Say I'm cold, say I'm heartless
Matters not to me
They told you I was trouble
but still you couldn't see
Love is never worth the pain
but it's worse to be alone
So you take the best you can get
and hope they don't leave you on your own

Doesn't take a lot at all
To make a person fall

And love doesn't burn like a fire
It glows like dying embers
I'm your Russian Roulette Romeo
You loaded all my chambers
You let me inside your head
You let my part get bigger
You put your Russian Roulette Romeo
In your heart
And pulled the trigger.


And now for my mini-rant. The Church is really just a massive marketing campaign that uses the 4 basic tenets of merketing to extraordinary lengths. Those four things are

1.Create a need
2.Offer a product to fill that need
3. Create a sense of reward and consequence
4. Create a sense of urgency.

1. Create a need. They tell you that you, by your very nature, are sinful. "For all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God." so you need salvation to be happy so they give you

2. the product to fill the need, Jesus.

3. Reward and consequence. "I am the way and the light, no one gets to the Father, except through me." So other religions that claim to do the same thing are totally wrong. If you believe OUR religion, you will get to Heaven, but if you don't you will go to HELL.

4. Urgency. You never know when you are going to die.

So really, the Church is successful, NOT because it shows any new truth, or explains anything about our world, they are just masters of marketing.

Stay Nerdy All!
