Don't Believe the Word Lyrics

I was one. A father’s son. Like his father before.
Petitioning the deity.
The threat of fire, the undisputed truth.

Trust, in fear. In ignorance. Like our fathers before.
Initiate, indoctrinate.
See the serpent as it coils around the child.

Rise when they rise. Fall when they fall.
Say what they say, even if you don’t believe the word.

It turns to dust. It ends with us.
DAMN RIGHT.

Let there be no other gods and masters (x2)
And they shall teach their children (x2)

(Lead: "Manger Zone" by R. Bruchert)

We are ignorant and blind.
Reality just a thorn in our sides.
Lose the religion and you’ll be fine.
Just open your eyes.

Rise when they rise. Fall when they fall.
Say what they say, even if you don’t believe a word.

I don’t believe it. I never believed it.
I don’t believe the word.
