lyrics

you say the inferno in your heart
is fuelled ny a rightous rage
that no other words hold truth
and only prayers shall prove
redemption for your brutal reign
of hatred in the guise of holy claims

and i can't out-pace this heavenly parade
you made yourselves the leaders of
and i can't explain
wy all these fools that remain
only break all the covenants thay taught
without the conscience of a single second thought

you offer absolution to the few
who swallow your hook and line
but like all fishermen and crooks do
you exagerate and use use their own hopes
to trap their minds
and peddle promises made up of hollow lies

and i can't out-pace this heavenly parade
you made yourselves the leaders of
and i can't explain
wy all these fools that remain
only break all the covenants thay taught
without the conscience of a single second thought

omens and arrogent portents
are thinly veiled pretense
justifying salvation like a whip
holy words demeaning
all our daughters and their dreamings
are rewritten and are twisted
'til they've ripped
the sanctity of equality to bits

and i can't out-pace this heavenly parade
you made yourselves the leaders of
and i can't explain
wy all these fools that remain
only break all the covenants thay taught
without the conscience of a single second thought
