lyrics

Slaving every soul you can
You're manipulating their every breath.
Propaganda and fear conditioning -
Your ways will be the death of you

Down to the river.
The bodies that you drag are in vain.
Drown in the river.
How can you not see you're insane?

They're crying, they're bleeding, they're screaming
Break the illusion.
They're dying, they long for salvation,
Break the illusion

Can you not hear the cries of the innocent
They beg for truth and humanity
Oh how I hope when your day comes
The gates of heaven will stay shut

Open the gates of hell
And swallow their "Son of God"

They're crying, they're bleeding, they're screaming
Break the illusion.
They're dying, they long for salvation,
Break the illusion

You breed plastic hearts,
plastic promises, plastic lives.
Brainwashing from birth, you are a prison.
One day the people will rise,
one day you'll see all you despise.
There's no going back,
you've dug your own hole.
The spell will be broken, you along with it.
and when the people wake

We will skin you alive bitch.
We will skin alive their "Son of God"
