A childhood innocence was drowned in your tears.
|
The demons that you fought are feeding your fears.
|
The poisoned secrets of your life stand revealed.
|
The truth destroys you, its no longer concealed.
|
|
Dear father forsaken, you knew what you were doing.
|
In silence your violence has left my life in ruin.
|
Yeah, in ruin, yeah.
|
|
You preyed upon my flesh then prayed for my soul.
|
Belief betrayed by lust, the faith that you stole.
|
Indoctrination by a twisted desire,
|
The catechism of an evil messiah.
|
|
Dear father forgive me, I know just what I'm doing.
|
In silence this violence will leave your life in ruin.
|
Yeah, in ruin, yeah.
|
|
Preacher of theocracy hiding your hypocrisy.
|
Under false sanctity, holy phoney empathy.
|
You have taken my life,
|
Now it's your turn to die.
|
|
Can you sleep at night? When you close your eyes
|
Do you think of all the pain from your lies?
|
Or do you deny you're responsible
|
For the victims of the sins you devised?
|
|
What you gonna tell them when they ask you? Well then
|
Is your conscience pure in your heart?
|
There is no exemption when you seek redemption
|
For all the lives that you've torn apart.
|
|
Your molestations of the cross you defiled,
|
A man once holy now despised and reviled.
|
You took possession while confessing my sins
|
And now you have to face whatever death brings, yeah.
|
|
Dear father forsaken, you knew what you were doing.
|
In silence your violence has left my life in ruin, yeah.
|
In ruin, yeah, yeah, yeah.
|
In ruin yeah.
|
