lyrics

Oh God why
Do we find delight
In that which is not of you?

Why God why
Have you just left us here to die?
Do you sit up in your heaven
And wonder why?
Do we deserve more grace
Than what's been given?
When we’ve squandered your love?
I’ve seen you placed on a pedestal
They joyfully want you to watch
As they destroy everything thats beautiful.
I’ve seen lives taken
Seen people beaten
The harm that they’ve endured
Justified by your word.

Why did you command us to love
When you could have commanded us to kill
Your will would be done with every drop of blood
spilled in your good name

Then maybe you could
delight in your creation
As it rips itself apart.
But instead you mourn.
If you suffer with us
Do we not kill you every day?
If we are not abandoned
Have we been sentenced to death by free will?
Our passion is annihilation
We kill each other
And we kill ourselves slow
It's all that we want
All that we seem to be
Is violence
