Lyrics Amos 5 - Jerusalem

Amos 5

We dont want religion… No, no…
A substitute for the real thing…
Ruthless in fake and control
Charismatic or traditional, still the same deadly leaven…
Standing in the way…
Hindering those that in honesty wants to get to Heaven…
Reach heaven… Yeah…
It comes dressed like an angel
Knows how to do the «Jesus talk»
Tricking those who’s out for a serious walk
Putting us to sleep in a churchy lulla lulla lullaby
Religious politics sending millions to die…
Wake up or we go down to the songs of that lukewarm sound!
Don’t believe the lies
God says: I can’t stand your religious meetings,
I’m fed up with your conferences and boring sermons
I’m tired of your image making, pretentious slogans and goals
I’ve had all I can take of your noisy ego-music…
Sing TO me for a change…
And we’ve lost it, yes we did…
And we don’t even see it
For the sake of pleasing man
Is it worth it in the end?
It’s your life
We are talking about our own existence now
If we only knew,
How we broke his heart and left the truth
Honesty, yeah, honesty in you and me
How we lost it on the way…
Dare to say… Yeah…
