Bibles and Bullies

Squint and play nice
It's hard to be mean
With the sun in your eyes

Clouds pass and I get a glimpse
Clinch my fist and take aim
Close my eyes and wish for the best

Faith always burns the sightless

Paper and promises
A book of fables no one has time for
Laws and riddles

Numbers repeated to nausea
No one asks why
Pray against seven, worship ten

Faith always burns the sightless

A saint is but a fool on an errand
Pastors as lost as their sheep
Lest we forget the marytrs

An eternal life worth dying for
One true nothing, myths and legends
No one's different in their play things

Faith always burns the sightless
Fire never burns the faithless
But it will burn everything else

Cult, Cult, Cult
It's all a joke
Drown a child
And claim salvation

Go to the store and demand a discount

Finger your meat and demand a free replacement

Kill your pastor and demand his widow leave their home

Faith will always burn the sightless
