The song started as a sort of confession - a blank sheet of paper with "I don't want to be a Christian" written at the top.

At some point it morphed into what I guess is my take on Peter's denial after Jesus was arrested. But there's a dash of Judas in their too, and I'm working on a couplet for St Thomas that I can sneak in down the line.

Lyrics:

I don't want to be a Christian anymore
I can't keep the demons away
I don't want to be a Christian anymore
I've always tried to find truth
Guess its time to get behind you
Spirit lead me on the way

I don't want to be a Christian anymore
I’m giving up the game, not the ghost
I don't want to be a Christian anymore
Half the world stands yearning
We're just fiddling while Rome earns
I'm giving up the game

Holy Spirit lead me on the way
The flock grows as the cockerel crows 
Again and again
There's breakfast on the shoreline
I'm sleeping in Gethsemane
And Sunday Follows Thursday
Friday's always in the way
I've nothing more to say

I don't want to be a Christian anymore
I can't keep the heathens in my head
I don't want to be a Christian anymore
You realize how you bore them
Crafting clever jibes at straw men
I'm giving up the game

Holy Spirit lead me on the way
The turncoats are the hammer blow
Again and again
Cos I don't want to be a Christian anymore
So wash my hands like pilate
Bet you no one bats at eyelid
I've nothing more to say

Holy Spirit lead me on the way
The flock grows as the cockerel crows
Again and again
But Friday's always in the way
And I could maim your ears
I can't hear a god damn thing
I’ve nothing left to say

Cos I'm a lost cause to the lost one's 
and a sucker to the pharisees
yeah I could maim your ears
I can't hear a god damn thing
I'm giving up the game
