you like surprises – you love to behave –
it’s hard to trust you – just keep it quiet – keep it safe
wash the pig blood off your hands – name your god –
and talk about your best friends
you say the big book’s a »must have read« –
so drop your guns – and get out of my head
big book memories of a long dead empire –
trying to rise – trying to rise and not to fall
wash yourself in the atoning blood of the lamb –
trying to rise and not to fall
if your god is so great – why do children kill and get killed
all the innocent suffer – for a hundred dollar bill
if your god is so great why – do fanatics spread around
in the name of their god who’s so great but not found
looking so pretty – dressed all in white – hell do I know you – I’m sleepless tonight
enjoying the white light – enjoying the guilt – enjoying the recall –
so what’s your name again
you try to convince me – you try to be safe –
what a glorious blueprint – of a modern slave
big book memories of a long dead empire –
trying to rise – trying to rise and not to fall
wash yourself in the atoning blood of the lamb –
trying to rise and not to fall
if your god is so great – why do children kill and get killed
all the innocent suffer – for a hundred dollar bill
if your god is so great why – do fanatics spread around
in the name of their god who’s so great but not found
it’s the lack of evidence – making me a disbeliever
take your gods and bury them – in the mass graves they create
don’t leave missunderstood – I love life in any way
we fall like rain – go down the drain
try to be safe – restart again
