Universal Conviction On A False Pretense Songtext
von Darkside NYC

You pray to ′God' and ask his forgiveness
Yet he won′t answer in the conventional ways
You claim to have faith, but for what reason?
Your prayers remain unheard and you're still believing
Dependent upon trust that's not been established
You′ll feel betrayed when all your hopes are banished

An organized attempt to instill fear...
Damnation and threat of hellfire

Ancient fables, moral contradictions
My impious conscience will reflect none of this
The bible is but a book of fiction
2,000 years on the bestseller list


With bleeding heart′s shocking realization
You'll regret religious affiliation
Toward heaven disengaged souls do not drift
When death occurs, you simply cease to exist
Life extinguished

Basic earthly pleasures in life are renounced
Dismissed as materialistic; extraction of doubts
An existence based on deprivation, you′re content
Waiting for your reward when you're heaven sent
You′ll soon realize there's no resurrection
The coffin in which you lie-your only protection

An organized attempt to instill fear...
Damnation and threat of hellfire
Hell is on earth
