black comedy - subtle conversion lyrics

the grim reality has taken a twisted turn in favor of
those who stand unapologetic
fanatics attack the structures of society –
preserving their faith as champions of morality
performing god’s work on earth
what if we let ourselves be held hostage to the
rhetoric of irreconcilable values?
hypocrites profound, denouncing all in their way
poisoning children’s minds to maintain their position
through moral retribution reproducing lies
the irony is as real as it is tragic – religious
zealots mobilize to bring on the second coming
their strain of fascist idealism meticulously designed
to advance their own salvation (ignite a war!)
and is the end result holier than the means?
a pathetic attempt to restore some human dignity?
paradox of democracy, allowing those whom seek to
destroy it to exert their claims as we stand by and
tolerate it as faith…
sic transit gloria mundi
we’re all in the same boat that barely floats
yet true believers drive to see us drown
fighting evil with evil – we choose replicate
history has a sordid-way of repeating itself
why can we never see this for ourselves?
delusions of grandeur, since when did god represent
peace and love?
throughout the ages minions legitimized enemies shall
pay with blood
conformed rationale – self-righteous response
judge they’d rather see the world burn, than the fully
of what they believe
waiting for their prayers to be heard and observed
manipulating the highest quarters of political power
arrogance, ignorance, in such lethal combination
blind adherence to these words has come to signify…
how enmeshed we are in lies – odium by default
until the end
programmed to the hate
awaiting godsend
as the world’s wars join as one
