lyrics

So they say that he cares that he loves every one of us, ya that’s what they say. But isn’t it true that he kills every one of us in his ‘mysterious ways’. Been used to abuse and confuse what we choose by fear, self-doubt, and shame. Used as the core for power and war since the dawn of fucking time. If our god equals genocide, then we might as well believe in satan. More people have died in the name of christ than any other cause. Been told to obey, submit, confess, never to indulge in natural human pleasures and desires, your misery is justified. Wait, be patient, endure, survive, your death is your salvation. Make a deal with god, that if you give your life to him you’ll be immortal, get eternal salvation. It gives us comfort to believe that we will live after we die, but there’s got to be a better way to cope with insecurity. Of course I have no fucking clue what lies ahead for me and you. Why can not we just accept that when we die we may cease to exist. Jesus loves me yes I know, for the bible tells me so. If I don’t pray on my knees, I will go to hell and burn.
