Hypnos - Inverted (Chasing the Apostles) Lyrics

Fear, religion is a fear that bows our heads
And builds cathedrals
Fear that only bends the knees, stammers litanies
And pretends honest love

Faith's teaching of slavish grace
Self-denial, obedience
Faith's teaching of slavish grace

Is the God liable for all wars, for the blood of innocents
Persecution, inquisition¬?
Did he permitted the tyrants to kill the patriots
And burn his friends at stake?

Did you ask the Holy Father and his Vatican squad
If they've been walking through Auschwitz back in the 40's?
Do you think those gas chambers are also divine act?
Then don't ever ask the question why we are inverted

Church pretends connection with the God
Knows that way to timeless joy is a journey towards death
Preaches salvation by holy faith where docile turn into angels
Disbelievers damned

Faith's teaching of slavish grace
Self-denial, obedience
Faith's teaching of slavish grace

Did you ask the Holy Father and his Vatican squad
If they've been walking through Auschwitz back in the 40's?
Do you think those gas chambers are also divine act?
Then don't ever ask the question why we are inverted
We never submit to someone who's not above of us
We never join the flock of feeble sheep of God
We never fall in the abyss of self-abasement
We prefer to live our lives here and now, that's why we're inverted

Inverted
