Eternity X - The Confession Lyrics
"Forgive me Father, for I am about to sin""My God"Smiling like a glad manFrowning like a sad manFeeling like a goddamn foolIt's a con gameAnd they say that God will forgive meAmnesty for repenting hereHow can he?Hello father, Father please help me,Tell me that God will forgive me now!Listen closely!Forgive me father I have sinnedI did another preacher in at confessionWhat's the matter now?Mr. Holier than thouSelf righteous foolI'll show you religionAnd justiceWas about 3 years agoI had a daughter, 12 years oldShe was my lifeMy essenceTaught her to obey the crossThe Father, Son, and the Holy GhostAnd the Good BookAnd your typeShe became his virgin prizeDead and raped and sacrificed!Behind closed doorsIn darkened roomsI'm so sick and tiredHypocritical liarsYou!So you speak for God here?What does he say now?Is he gonna help you?Will he forgive...me?Father I see you wanna know what lies behind this icy stareDon't dig my head for remorse in this, trust me it's not thereI'd rather talk about you and where you fit in thisAnd why you all act like God and all that pertains to itYou say that you speak in his name but how can you forgiveThe rapists and the killers? I don't believe God ever didWhat I need to know here is why God only talks through youI can assure you, Mr. Holy Man, God talks to me tooJust not in a million dollar church with gold framesHe speaks to me any place, to God it's all the sameHave you heard
