Secular Ways

They say he parted the waters and guided them through
But the righteous path was fictitious and they hadn't a clue
For his story was thereafter, but now we're dying in waves
As, under a crescent, we cross a Dead Sea of watery graves

It was an imaginary scenario, for nothing is planned
For ours is the desert, juxtaposed to an eternity of sand
And we're still killing each other in an ideological war
For the indoctrinated are unrestrained like never before

But they say we're lost and abandoned in our secular ways
Although we're bearing their cross until the end of our days
So let's follow them to the sea and observe at close quarters
And let them show us the true way, by parting the waters
