Lyrics
Tear it from the cross, shake it to pieces, scream demon wind into its ears
I'm not getting an answer. how can you be so fucking real?
Now I turn my back upon this crossbearer, the lesser to me of a figment
Never am I guided by its wisdom, gentleness, or kindess
Holy wars, killing in the name of god
The right to be minimalized under the rule of the unseen greatness
I cannot bow my head or kneel my figure to a fake symbol
And yet I dream and walk this earth in free thought for myself
Proving my existence without this form of worship
So now let me spit upon the cross of your worship
Or kill me in the name of god
I only understand its hate
The skin beneath a mask of shallow actions
With a book of superstitions to live by, all living blind
