Taught to believe from the onset, of heaven
|
and hell and between
|
The institution's retribution - damnation from on high
|
Living and dying together never did nothing at all
|
Except for the few who got rich off of you
|
And the rest, they were herded like sheep
|
|
(Chorus)
|
Mine are the eyes of god
|
And what I see is not what was meant to be
|
Mine are the eyes of god
|
Mine are the eyes
|
Mine are the eyes of god
|
|
Down the road to betrayal of values they
|
held to be true
|
An abberation, deviation to get to hte spirit of life
|
The whole goddamn world is riding on words
|
for thousands of years
|
It's just like the west, to think it knows best
|
When answers are subject to change
|
|
(Chorus)
|
|
They took what could have been
|
And turned it upside down
|
They twisted all things seen
|
What's lost must now be found
|
I got to see it
|
Got to believe it
|
I got to be there
|
|
I got to see it
|
Got to believe it
|
|
Given the power of reason yet throwing it all
|
to the wind
|
No solution in evolution - only the blood-stained glass
|
A soul full of lies in contention, begs sacred
|
yet worships profane
|
Lose sight of the fact that you're where it's at
|
Not the stars, not the cross, nor the moon
|
|
(Chorus)
|
|

Mine Are the Eyes of God

| Corrosion of Conformity |
