I Still Talk to Jesus

"i typed "i still talk to jesus" in my notes app 9 months before sitting down to write the song. i was raised in church, but there are things i do now that i grew up thinking i would go to hell over. “sex, drugs, and rock ‘n roll”… this is my confession. i wanna believe that prayer works. however… i think, often times, they’re answered in ways we don’t expect or recognize. i have a vivid memory of pulling up to church one Sunday and watching this cowboy finish his cigarette before he walked in. i tried to capture the same energy in these pre-choruses. stained glass windows are synonymous with cathedrals and religion. talking about stained past in the same breath felt like a humongous songwriting achievement to me. i wanted the outer to sound and feel like i was playing this song alone in a Sunday school room with the door slightly cracked, and you were listening down the hall."
