Holy Men

(album: Howl - 2012)

Drunk on the blood of Christ
Make the altar boy cry
Choke on the word of the lord
It's only wrong if your parents know
Kneel to a human god
Receive the gift he's got
Cover the mess under your robes
It's only wrong if your parents know

[Refrain:]
I find hell in the most holy places
I lose my faith in the most sacred spaces
I find hell in the most holy places
I lose my faith in the most sacred spaces

How can you believe?

When the church becomes a sanctuary
For hungry pedophiles and rape
The men in charge of nurturing faith
Trade trust for action on the alter
Move the priest from town to town
So he can spread his enlightenment around
Cool it man everybody sins, everybody sins
He's only human after all

[Refrain]

The eyes of god sear your back
You'd do anything to forget
Do you know what happens now
When you deprive man of sexuality
I trusted you to get me through
You gave me hell on earth
Hang the rope I cannot cope
I cannot cope at all

Let the children fall

[Refrain x2]

How can you believe? [x4]
