Walking Dead On Broadway - Your God is a Tyrant
текст песни

Your god is a tyrant
And this is what you wish him to be

There is a shadow at the backside of your redemption
There is contempt in your sermons of passion and selflessness Can you look me in the eye and testify your love in the name of your saviour?

Untouchable and unreachable is the majesty of godly power The wretched praise omnipotence in mistaking it for grace
Do you feel like you are liberated from your sense of guilt
Or is it not still nagging at your pride?
The guarantee of your truth is that it is sanctioned with the threat of damnation
You believe in the word because you think it will be brought to prevail just by the sword
The gift that you're trying to share with the world has been contaminated with your resentment of the free

Are you worshipping god or the idol of power?
Your dedication is desperate and your charity is sour

Servile and humbly before the throne of the eternal one
Your head is bent like you're expecting the axe

I can't tell your worship from pretentious self-hatred
Your ecstasy's a deathwish hiding the dagger behind your back Identification is the only thing to keep you from blasphemy
Your enthusiasm is the mask of your lack

You are preaching a liberation but I can't tell it from the slavery

Tell me is there a difference between mercy and humiliation?
Is there a difference between love and dependency?
You make them look so much alike
Fall to your knees
Erase the flesh
You were created to deny yourself
Hold your breath
Introvert the hatred for your god
And understand
Maybe no one in this world is innocent
But certainly he is not
