about

Track 3 on The Pale and Crescent Moon Album.

lyrics

You cherry-pick your favourite bits of vitriol from the ancient scrolls just to justify your bigotry and hate. But you’re pretty damn lenient, with words that aren’t convenient when they tell you how to love and tolerate.

How can you even think this way?
is this really how you pray?
…that your enemies be slain?,
Did you think about it?
or are you just sick and indoctrinated, just sick and indoctrinated?

On the day you meet your deity, will he welcome you with piety or will he look into the blackness in your soul?
‘Cause if he has divine intelligence, then he can spot the difference between what’s good and right and what just suits your goal.

How can you even think this way?
Is this really how you pray?
… that your enemies be slain?,
Do you believe it?
or are you stupid and indoctrinated, stupid and indoctrinated?

I’d rather spend eternity in hell or deep in purgatory than 5 minutes in paradise with you.
‘Cause if you think you’re the chosen one, you really couldn’t be more wrong, judgement day was made for ones like you.

(Dies Irae! )

How can you even think this way?
Is this really how you pray?
… that your enemies be slain?,
Do you believe it?
or are you just sick and indoctrinated, stupid and indoctrinated?
stupid sick and indoctrinated?
