Intro
What have I sinned, God?
Does anyone know what I’ve sinned?
What have I sinned, God?
Does anyone know what I’ve sinned?

Chorus
What have I sinned, God?
What have I sinned?
What have I sinned, God?
Does anyone know?
What have I sinned, God?
What have I sinned?
What have I sinned, God?
That I’m stuck forever chasing fun?

Verse 1
I play a game (watch a game),
Tell a story (listen to a story),
Take a picture (look at a picture),
Sing a song (listen to a song).
Write a letter, read a book,
Record a video, play a video.
And now I even have an avatar —
Yes, I have an avatar!

Verse 2
I believe in this, I believe in that.
It never ends; there’s always something.
Tell me a story to make me laugh —
Laugh till I cry, cry my tears.
Tell me a story,
(Tell me a story, tell me a story).

Pre-Chorus
January, December — I find ways to have fun.
8, 8, 8 — the fun never stops.
Pleasure and delight.
I burn out in this fun, resist it,
And forget it all.
Forget it all.

Chorus
What have I sinned God?
What have I sinned?
What have I sinned God?
Does anyone know?
What have I sinned God?
What have I sinned?
What have I sinned God?
That I’m stuck forever chasing fun?

Bridge
I have fun to forget,
Have fun to forget it all — it’s just how it has to be.
So I have fun to forget.
To hell with the pain, to hell with everything — that’s just how it has to be.
So I have fun to forget.
I have fun to forget it all — it’s just how it has to be.
So I have fun to forget.
I have fun — it’s just how it has to be, it’s just how it has to be.
It’s just how it has to be.

Outro
If you’re not with me, you’re against me.
My fun is better than yours.
If you’re not with us, you’re against us.
Our fun is better than yours.
Us and them, us and them, us and them, us and them
(If you’re not with me, you’re against me).
Sorting and counting, sorting and counting
(My fun is better than yours).
Us and them, us and them, us and them, us and them
(If you’re not with us, you’re against us).
Our fun is better than yours.

Chasing Fun, Running from Meaning

This song seems to explore the idea of searching for meaning and fulfillment through constant distractions and entertainment. It reflects on how we, as individuals and as a society, might lose ourselves in the pursuit of fun, avoiding deeper thoughts or addressing more complex emotions. The repeated question “What have I sinned, God?” could be a way of expressing confusion or guilt about this pattern of behavior, though the nature of the "sin" might be more metaphorical than religious.

Key moments in the song, like the references to constantly seeking fun and the repetitive nature of activities like watching games, telling stories, or even creating avatars, may highlight how we can get caught up in the surface-level aspects of life, often without realizing the deeper consequences. There’s also an element of exhaustion that comes from this endless chase, as seen in the lines about burning out in fun but continuing the cycle nonetheless. The bridge suggests that fun is used as a way to escape, maybe as a defense mechanism against pain or difficult emotions.

Ultimately, this song seems to invite us to reflect on our own habits, to question whether we are truly fulfilled or simply distracting ourselves from something deeper. It doesn’t offer answers but presents an ongoing struggle that many of us might relate to, balancing enjoyment and emptiness.
