You are not the first in line
to join the endless chain
So many centuries of travelling
have led to nowhere
The tumor grows inside us
It feeds from our guts
You pretend to only serve the one you
Used to call your god
But the verses are blurred inside
Your Bible words collide
Beneath the world of hope
Lies a life to cope ... with
Watching a halo fade to grey
and fall apart
can the population of the earth
be so blind
Blind devotion rots your brain
Prophets promise rain in times of fire
Invading our dreams mercilessly
before the night even starts
Crucifix that spreads disease
Will cause your life to cease
Baptized in the blood of your victims
Victims of manipulation
But the verses are blurred inside
Your Bible words collide
Beneath the world of hope
Lies a life to cope ... with
Watching a halo fade to grey
and fall apart
can the population of the earth
be so blind
You will suffer for their glory
if you don't contribute
The soul of a crusader within each
And every one of your prayers
Polluting minds, choking your will
Disciples starve for his glamour
Wrapped up in divine sermons
You walk straight into the trap
Every riot is suffocated
Our cutups equal blasphemy
It's not a giant leap
From martyr to murderer
Watching a halo fade to grey
and fall apart
can the population of the earth
be so blind
