Lyrics:
All humans are siblings
This is a truth that I've assumed
All fighting over the legacy
Of a lifelong and timeless family feud
In the name of I don't know what
In the name of I don't know what
I don't believe in God
But if I did I'd surely say
There is only one Power up above us
One face refracted in each different Faith
But for every holy confessor
There's a priest of self-worth
Trading in the eternal for power on earth
Soaked, the blood of believers
In the ground where prophets trod
How in God's name did religion
Get so far away from God?
Oh, mercy, mercy, mercy now!
Oh, mercy, mercy, mercy!
I don't believe in God
But, with all respect to those who do
Surely no purpose could be served under heaven
If there's no mercy in this place we're passing through?
Oh, now for every sainted ascetic
Drawing heavenly breath
There's a literal fanatic
In love with death
A fanatic in love with death
Soaked, the blood in the pages
Pored with all-too-human pride
In what book of what religion
Is the blood-lust sanctified?
In the name of creation
For whatever that is worth
Why in God's name is religion
Bound so mortally to earth?
Soaked, the blood of believers
In the ground where prophets trod
How in God's name did religion
Fall so far away from God?
This is the Fall from God
This is the Fall from God
