In The Name Of...

History offers to teach
Time and time again
You unscramble to preach
I’d rather trust in humanity
Three books, one meaning
Countless interpretations
The messages careening
At the price of innocent lives
Impervious to culture
Subjected to the thought of man
Only few can survive
But in the end we may eat our words
My anti-sentiment
In the end may prevail
I can only dictate myself
Wishing protection from the eye

Play the men like fiddles
We weep at your distress
Destroy the lives
Break the hands of a mothers caress

I play creator
You bend the rules
Ruin lives
For immortality in a mortal world

In the name of…
Contradicting lies
Guilty as charged
For a millions demise

In the name of…
Unspeakable truths
Countless lead blind
To an empty salvation

Black is your white but was once your red
Changing with the tides of time
A quick reflection
Makes an easy detection
I have seen your self-righteous past
So clear

I pity those who blindly pull
The reigns of your chariot
In the end, does it even matter?

From a safe distance I watch
Gazing into thoughtless eyes
Their ignorance is bliss
With a side-effect it dies

In the name of…
Contradicting lies
Guilty as charged
For a millions demise

Black is your white but was once your red
Changing with the tides of time
A quick reflection
Makes an easy detection
I have seen your self-righteous past
So clear

Multiple worlds are lost
Destroyed by the hand of good
The hand of good saves all
All in the name of what?

Civilized advancement
Held prisoner by invisible
The true power is all around
Look no further for the crown

In the name of…
Contradicting lies
Guilty as charged
For a millions demise

Black is your white but was once your red
Changing with the tides of time
A quick reflection
Makes an easy detection
I have seen your self-righteous past
So clear

See so clear
