your god is a fraud
nothing more than a peasant
adorned with a paper crown
cowardice manifested
imaginary throne
when hollow eyes stare right through me
it makes it impossible
to decipher the lies around me
as I beg for the rationale
a thousand mouths speak a thousand lies
I can't stop listening
a thousand scars from a thousand knives
keep on opening
kill the insect that burrows within
digging beneath the skin
where is the god you promise me?
always absent
hanging by a noose
from every word
lead to the slaughter
by your own shepherd
everyone claims to see his light
but its difficult to believe
now that I see it for what it is
its easy to look away
your vision was clouded
by the promise hidden behind his eyes
all of life's lessons
seem to fall on deaf ears
your white light
is a bold faced fucking lie
a lie
