Father Lukas
My gut feeling says it's all fake, I hate to say it but it,
This isn't a small phase, my perspective's all changed
My thoughts just keep picking shit apart all day

Lukas had a wonderful childhood growing up, born to two very loving Catholic parents and raised to believe in the same religion. He never questioned the existence of God and believed so heavily that he went to college to become a Priest and was ordained at the age of 25. For the next 6 years he was the ever faithful and devout believer, then he found out his mother had stage 4 breast cancer and six months later, she passed away. His faith began to waver when he had learned of his mother's condition, why would a merciful God let such a devout follower like his mother suffer from such an illness? To let her waste away and become a shadow of her former self before she finally passed into his arms? As he watched his mother being lowered into the ground, his faith in God was buried with her. Ever since he has been dealing with a crisis of faith - oscillating between belief, rejection, and anger at a supposed God that let his mother die in such a painful way. It is getting harder and harder for him to reconcile years of believing in a Merciful God with the harsh reality that, if he is real, God doesn't actually care.

And in my mind I make perfect sense
If you aren't real then all my prayers aren't worth a cent
