I learned the lord is my master |
|
though his name I no more chant |
|
I removed my silver crucifix |
|
harken not to the preacher's rant |
|
My only bible has been burned |
|
that was the last time I kneeled |
|
Nothing in church I ever learned |
|
only to my selfish urge I'd yield |
|
|
|
I am traitorous |
|
I am treasonous |
|
|
|
Sworn allegiance I desert |
|
to sin and lust I convert |
|
My unbelief prevaricates |
|
the abode of hell my soul awaits |
|
|
|
So I burn |
|
oh they feed me flames |
|
At the stake I taste the merciless fire |
|
so I burn |
|
Oh but the devil knows |
|
I shall rise renewed from the ashes of my death |
|
|
|
I was throbbing in my desire |
|
holy doctrines I no more knew |
|
When i was praying at the altar |
|
the words all seemed too few |
|
Tempted to sell my soul |
|
my mind corrupted with vanity |
|
Obsessed to reach my goal |
|
enticed beyond the gates of insanity |
|
|
|
Perverse intent in my mind |
|
high on deceit and what I can blind |
|
Heresy is my guilty creed |
|
in perjury engulfed in greed |
