Lyrics
Believe. Deceive. Merchant of grief.
I don't believe one bit; You talk so slick, to keep a grip.
It's all show, to deceive, for your own ends, from those you don't know to your best friends.
Think about the world that you live in, take a look and see how it really is; no magic and no real miracles,
No need for religious blind obedience.
Pray to God tonight and see how long he takes to answer.
Your hate-filled mantra is a cancer.
Prey on those who grieve in their weakest times, say they must believe to one day reunite.
It's not right, how you preach, giving false hope. How broken's your mind to live out this sick joke?
I'm sure an omnipresent superbeing wouldn't need defended by the likes of you.
You have wasted your whole life agreeing with something, you knew, it was never true.
Pray to God and see how long he takes to answer. Your hate-filled mantra is a cancer.
Ecclesiastical conviction in malice. Exploiting fear to indict us.
I'm sure an omnipresent superbeing wouldn't need defended by the likes of you.
You have wasted your whole life agreeing with something, you knew, it was never true.
Living and breathing and pushing this spin, a fantasy you want the world to live in.
Opining, defining, corrupting their minds from youth.
Reading and writing, reciting these tales, commitment to lies on a giant-sized scale.
Some people are looking for answers and just find you.
Needing, believing there's some kind of light, they're grasping for something to help them through life,
You selfishly use them to push your own fucked up views.
Fuck you.
I'm sure an omnipresent superbeing wouldn't need defended by the likes of you.
Call them your beliefs, but I know you know they're not.
Crawling on your knees, you know you've got a lot to beg for.
Call them your beliefs, but I know you know they're not.
Merchant peddling grief, stay the fuck away from my life.
