lyrics

How can you turn your cheek and look away?
Righteous coward.
Spewing lies of grace for all, through your clenched teeth.
What makes me lesser?
Preach upon your pedestal,
Justifying your place upon above me.
Ameer unworthy sinner destined for damnation,
While you believe your faith brings eternity.
How can you blindly base your life?
Yet discredit my beliefs are my own.
How can you so strongly voice an opinion,
That is not your own,
Without ever taking a second look at your reflection?
Are you scared to gaze into the mirror and find out you're a lie?
That you were too busy finding faults in others to realize.
How can you turn your back and simply walk away?
Righteous coward.
Demanding repentance while hiding in your shame.
You speak of faith and grace, hope, forgiveness, mercy.
Yet you don't know their meaning.
Recognition, the only motive for your deeds.
Pray, pray when your god seeks judgement.
He'll wash away all impurity.
Pray, pray that your meaningless,
Hollow faith in nothing shall miraculously save.
