Lyrics of 'Retreat!' by Cursive

They checked the shrine and the temple but he wasn't there.
They checked the mosque and the chapel; nope, not there.
Since you've been away on holiday,
The natives are all nightmares.
Since you've been away on holiday,
I did dream that you'll disappear.
You keep us on a leash we can't conceive but still must adhere to.

The natives are whipping each other over which God they prefer.
I wish he'd do us all a favor and just defer.
Since you've been away on holiday,
We don't know which God is which.
And since you've been away on holiday,
It's getting harder to give a shit.
So if you stayed away on holiday we could get on with it.
I mean we could evolve like this if you just call it quits.

Since you've been away on holiday,
we've stomached your archaic rule.
And since you've been away on holiday,
We've hosted some wars over you.
So stay away on holiday, my friend, we don't need your services,
Your excuses, your mysterious ways.
Your mysterious ways.
Your mysterious ways.
Your mysterious ways.
What a mysterious way to behave.
What a mysterious way to just go away.

Lord, let us go.
