Blessed be
thy torment;
Bound to the cadaver of the righteous
Our dutiful dead;
Dispose of this land in renewed valour
For we have slain the pitiful
Scoured this repugnant plain
With our cleansing touch
With vigour I blind my sight
Tranquil I resign my fate
Willing I cut my loins
For you have bled for us
You have died for us
Bind up thy wicked tongues
Sew shut her shameful l***
Burn up the sodomites
For they have wronged you
They have opposed you
Our vainglorious divinity
Fertile manure of the oppressed
Seething in cruor of the devout
Lives shed in adoration of you
Pardon the meek inheritance
Your words blanch skin bleach white
Cast out all other creeds
Gomorra filth;
worthless kin
Darwin's soiled grievance
Truth outweighed by the dumb
No reason in his domain
The deafening throng
The rapturous ascent
Of lives left in forfeit
Our last lament
This selfish appraisal
Lives lifted above
Bereft of all love
[explanation:]
Dominion theology is the term applied to fundamentalist christians who wish to seek a theocratic government within the US. A society where religion dictates the laws of the land. Fundamentalist christianity is plain in its objective. The oppression of women and non-caucasians, the eradication of h***s**uals, the rejection of scientific proof. Radical christianity is one of the biggest threats to a progressive, accepting society. The lyrics in this song are written from the point of view of a fundamentalist, where their own choices hinder them from understanding the world around them and any drive to seek the truth is suppressed, burying their heads in fictional ideologies that have no place in society today. As a species we are capable of so much, but even now, after all this time, we find it so much easier to just ignore the bigger picture and accept flawed,ludicrous explanations which do nothing but stagnate our brains. Religion offers us nothing. Stand up and fight against tyrannical beliefs which seek to oppress your way of life, your way of thinking.
