heretics & killers
Singer:protest the hero
they called me the man with the blood of christ honesty
i drink with heathens and our
in wine there's truth but in silence there's surrender
a screaming for the silence in stunned suspicious terror
built a temple in my life and used god to seal the pillars
after twenty years of fighting young heretics and killers
i watch my temple fall to pieces
at the first signs of oncoming weather
i knew i would die but my lips could only say;
so why have you forsaken me?
there's a hole in my heart but it just makes me unholy
crucified that night and i walked away with alter-egos
like the prison priest who preaches his dead and buried gospel
with my faith in ruins my duty still breathes strong
i'm a parrot in a cage just singing prayers to belong
to a textbook of my crying
