enshrined

for heresy lives were devastated

the name of god their penalty

crusades geared for destruction

millions paid for a perverted creed

white-washed relics enshrined

stole the eyes from the blind

thank god man's poor reflection of himself

in his image created perplexed

the church imitated cannibalism

white-washed relics enshrined

stole the eyes from the blind

man's attempt to reach god

futile ploy restricts the rod

god's attempt to reach man

death to life connecting strand

white-washed relics enshrined

stole the eyes from the blind

in ignorance lives were extricated

retribution for their belief

leaders schemed to dominate

barbaric hunger for misery

white-washed relics enshrined

stole the eyes from the blind
