You're the dead womb of liars
A stronghold of thieves
You've stolen from generations past, and you've stolen from me
Has God told you how to kill
To slaughter the weak?
Is a gun or a triple-edged tongue the tool of the meek?
I'll burn down this keep
I'll light a fire and walk away
The waves shall ream your house of hate
Your towers crumbling into the bay
Speak to my bloodline
Speak to the slaves
Preach about how much they've taken, and how much you gave
And your strength is in numbers
Your thoughts unified
And you revel in fame and in votes as you watch others die
You say, "Lord, Lord, I've obeyed thee"
Crying, "Lord, Lord, come and save me"

Pray for the dead
Our lives torn to shreds
Pray for the dead
Our lives torn to-
♪
Oh-yeah
But your God doesn't have a heaven
No cosmic domain
Your greedy master rules the land with statutes and chains
So go and die for your flag
Worship your creed
The reason you wake and breathe, the reason you breed
I'll burn down this keep
I'll light a fire and walk away
The waves shall ream your house of hate
Your towers crumbling into the bay
