I came out of the warm womb, into a world of fear and hopelessness.
I was given the gift of life, but the package of this gift was opened by someone else.
I was never given the chance to ask myself what could I do with this gift.
I will not cry or reach out for Christ's hand;
he carries my guilt and my sin which was never there.
I reject this Christ;I reject the myth that holds us.
Where is this heaven you speak of? Where is this love you offer?
Have I no self - control over my thoughts? Whether I like it or not?
Is my fate sealed toan endless existence binded in guilt and sin?
Your cross has been worn as a symbol of guilt for too long.
How much more blood will flow in your name?
Do you seek some ultimate genocide?
Must we always bear the burden of your cross?
I seek no Christ as my savior, I must find control myself.
I seek no God, No painted idol; I'm the only one who answers to me.
I ask for nothing, I owe him nothing. His name cause the fires that raged the earth.
His conditions, his ten commandments, slip the nose around our necks.
Does your word epitomize good? Where was he when they gassed the Jews?
Northern Ireland, Hiroshima, Belsen, Auschwitz - where was he?
What right has he to share his pain? What right has he to crucify us?
Forever onward Christian soldiers, Hold up that banner so they can see Hiroshima's children.
Let them see now slaughter in the trenches.
Let them see sorrow of the mothers who lost their sons.
The visions of the Christians who'll carry Christ's gun.
You manufacture our destruction; you turn your heads away.
Do your unseeing eyes carry no fear? Has the system channeled your thought's?
Reject this system. Sow the seeds of peace.
Don't recognize the rules of the power monger, for his hand shall not touch upon peace.
Let no politician make your decisions, for the only government is yourself.
Reject and pacify.
Religious ranting's support this system, we're caught like flies in a spiders web.
Look to the heavens to find solutions, but you never see your Christ is dead.
Your crown of thorns, it weighs me down, distorts my vision and burdens my mind.
We're still waiting, still watching, a second coming, more guilt to sell Armageddon,
your good and evil, which is the side which speaks for you?
Good and evil possessions of all men. Good and evil is what we must bear.
Cliches of love run from the bible, backed by a negative philosophy.
