One more child out on the street
One more kid smelling defeat
Blurry sights through a broken nose
As his pill addiction takes it's hold
Capsules fueling theft and lies
His mind inside just tries to hide
But the cross is skinny, his crimes are fat
And you're all pointing where he's at
I've seen this before, this unholy war
Angel soldiers
Throwing the spears, and bathing in tears
Bloodlust fueling
Criminal desires, baptizing through fires
And one more innocent escapes
But dies outside the holy gates
I've seen this before, this unholy war
No more
God is dead
And gone without a trace
Defaced for all the human race
And all the shrines built in his name
No longer hold the shield of shame
So dig the dagger, twist the blade
Press it deeper, call his name
Collect the jewel, beseech the sate
All for the collection plate
I was born the son of man
I crawled up from no grave
My throat was slashed, my body burnt
My children sold as slaves
