"You Will Be Godless" lyrics - HEAVEN SHALL BURN

HEAVEN SHALL BURN
"You Will Be Godless"

Godless old men, confess your sins
Why don't you practise what you preach

An isolated super state
Lead and controlled by rotten tyrants
Detached from this world and disconnected from reality
Maintaining power is the highest destination
Supressing real enlightenment and ruling by oppression
Misanthropic doctrines, committed only to their profit

Follow them and godless you will be
Preaching love but feeding hatred
Forgiving sins, concealing crimes
Just follow them and godless you shall be

Infallible, an ultimate authority
Without any explanation
Manipulation, profiteering
Money greedy hypocrites, power-hungry dotards
Downtrodden believers
Trapped within archaic structures

Why don't you practise, what you preach

Follow them and godless you will be
Feeding the swayer, taunting the starving
Worship creation, while agonizing creatures

Black hearts beating under snow-white cassocks
Their golden beringed hands, pray to a distressed icon
Ancient traditions of justifying dark suppressors
