The truth of man it is untold Since the beginning of time To evolve from nothing Creation divine Find ourselves in constant question What is known it makes no sense They say the body has a soul That can never die Following tales of apples and snakes Claims written and doctored through time Salvation is at stake, in doctrine a testament Confirmation of the golden shrine Penance through prayers, to clear the sins of mankind People fear in their beliefs, the idols that are praised Taught to live by the book and words will show them the way And by the seventh day all was made Following tales of apples and snakes Claims written and doctored through time Salvation is at stake, in doctrine a testament Confirmation of the golden shrine Penance through prayers, to clear the sins of mankind Promises through worship Damnation cast out The body and the blood And still we're disavowed Warnings of the impending wrath Like that of the worldwide flood and plague The offering of tides, helping guilt slip by A stranglehold on faith, as you kneel and pray Does this deter the end? Or is it all just pretend? No afterlife has been shown With all this, what do we really know? Feelings of peace, tranquility, blinding light Revelations of nothing Following tales of apples and snakes Claims written and doctored through time Salvation is at stake, in doctrine a testament Confirmation of the golden shrine Penance through prayers, to clear the sins of mankind
