Track from our 1997 Release "The Edge"
Smiling like a glad man, frowning like a sad man, feeling like a goddamn fool
It's a con game... And they say that God will forgive me
Amnesty for repenting here...how can he?
Hello father, Father please help me, tell me that God will forgive me now...
Listen closely...
Forgive me father I have sinned, I did another preacher in at confession
(CHORUS)
What's the matter now, Mr. Holier than thou
Self righteous fool, I'll show you religion...And justice
(VERSE)
Was about 3 years ago
I had a daughter 12 years old
She was my life...my essence
Taught her to obey the cross
Father son and the Holy ghost
And the good book...and your type
She became his virgin prize
Dead and raped and sacrificed behind closed doors...In darkened rooms
I'm so sick and tired
Hypocritical liars...you
(CHORUS II)
Say you speak for God here, what does he say now
Is he gonna help you, will he forgive...me?
(MIDDLE)
Father I see you wanna know what lies behind this icy stare
Don't dig my head for remorse in this, trust me it's not there
I'd rather talk about you and where you fit in this
And why you all act like God and all that pertains to it
You say that you speak in his name but how can you forgive
The rapists and the killers, I don't believe God ever did
What I need to know here is why God only talks through you
I can assure you Mr. Holy man God talks to me too
Just not in a million dollar church with gold frames
He speaks to me anyplace, to God it's all the same
(LEAD)
(VERSE III)
Have you heard enough information
Hey father are you afraid of me...you should be
I've said all that I need to
Thank you for letting me speak my peace...It's a wonder
Get down on your knees
That's right you better plead, it's the last time...you will pray
Tell me do, do you forgive me
Tell me do, do you still love me father
(CHORUS)
I need to know
Has my soul been sold
Is God here with you
Does he love me, does he love me, does he love me too?
Confessions over...
