March of the Atheists |
Well I can accept that you have your faith |
So you must accept that I have none |
You chase your god into your grave |
I’ll die alone when my days are done |
All these fabulous beasts that you strike down |
All this beautiful land that you claim to command |
And all these wars in the name of a book |
There’s god in your heart but there’s blood on your hands |
So where are you fires of hell |
So where now your golden gates |
I see no angels, no heaven on high |
I hear no marching of your saints |
Go placidly amongst the noise and haste |
Well, I know your churches are a sight to behold |
And I know your stories as good as any man |
I know we all have our crosses to bear |
But I? |
ll waste none of my time in desperate prayer |
I’ve rung the bells of the Mont St-Michel |
But me and the saviour were never that close |
I’ve called into the night with no hope of reply |
But I? |
ve seen the holes in the holy ghost |
So where now, your peace to all men |
So where now, your undeniable proof |
Where is it written, in paper or stone |
An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth |
