Sacrilege

Otep · Sevas Tra [2002]

Resurrection is for those

who didn't get it right the first time



Eternal salvation suffers from inflation



Sinner



Say what you need to save your soul

But don't fuck with me, I'm losing control

I'm so tired of this, so sick of you

My tongue is battered and bruised from all these attitudes



Sinner



So teach me the magic of your sacred poems

Conjuring a voice of signs and omens

Prophecies guide the breeze

With syllables symbols breed



Behind the eyes we climb the vine

To sacrifice our wounded minds

In soft word trances seek insanity

I can't save you 'cause I hate me



The lord is my weapon, I shall shoot pawns

Woman is a devil, your God is a fraud

Everyone you knew, everything you've ever done

Suffer for your freedom, rise and overcome



Sinner



Say what you need to save your soul

But leave your religion at the door

We're smoking all of Krishna's weed

I'm sick of these weak anarchies



You see me as a place to make a bruise

But in my reality I'm a slave to the muse

Fuck those hypocrites, together we'll fight

The tyranny of squares, squiggles unite



The lord is my weapon, I shall shoot pawns

Woman is a devil, your God is a fraud

Everyone you knew, everything you've ever done

Suffer for your freedom, rise and overcome



All you sinners

And blasphemers

Burn in the pit



Sinner

Burn



The lord is my weapon, I shall shoot pawns

Woman is a devil, your God is a fraud

Everyone you knew, everything you've ever done

Suffer for your freedom, rise and overcome



Save me

Why?
