Religion

Religion comes to lock you tight.
It sneaks it 's way throughout the night.
Religion comes to lock you tight.
This thing it always takes the light.

Never be so blind to see.
Religion it won't let you be.
They never new that you were kind.
Religion it will kill you're mind.
It ties you up and keeps you down.
It wont let you go on the town.

Religion gives you lots of choices.
Never listen to the voices.
When you hear them, shut your ears.
They will scare you with their fears.
Do you think they ever hear.
The preachers spreading all their fears.

Must you seek it out in life.
Can't you be happy, without strife.
Preachers that have come and gone.
None of them have ever shone.
I'll tell you now, I'll set you free.
There not the ones that hold the key.

Religion comes to lock you tight.
It sneaks it 's way throughout the night.
Religion comes to lock you tight.
This thing it always takes the light.

Is it love that we can't see.
Does it come from you and me.
Religion it won't fill that hole.
Remember that it's in your sole.
