Get Off Your Cross

They say salvation is the key
Of faith and philosophy
Follow blindly not questioning
All that they are preaching
And
That god is the savior
I say god is a player!

Get off your cross
All faith is lost
You can not save who doesn't want to be
You can not burn who does not believe
Get off your cross
All faith is lost

I bruised my knees it's true
I prayed when I needed to
When I was raped and abused
Prayed when it was all I could do
But where the fuck were you?
Where was god when I was all but blue?

I was never offered any sanctuary
I was never blessed like mother Mary
That's fine with me I repent
For this religion that I resent
Won't find a saint who'd save me
Fuck it it's I who's been set free

Watch me now as I fucking spit
On a book of lies that is shit
Fairytales, I outgrew them
Make believe, I'm not condemned
The church had failed me long ago
Remember what you reap is what you sew

Get off your cross
My souls not lost
You can not scare me anymore
I know that Hell is not instore
Get off your cross
My souls not lost




Get off your cross
Your Religion has lost
Get off your cross
This faith has lost
Get off your cross
My souls not lost
Get off your cross
Get off your cross
Get off your...
