Godless old men, confess your sins.
Why don't you practice what you preach?

An isolated super state.
Lead and controlled by rotten tyrants.
Detached from this world and disconnected from reality.
Maintaining power is the highest destination.
Suppressing real enlightenment and ruling by oppression.
Misanthropic doctrines, committed only to their profit.

Follow them and godless you will be.
Preaching love, but feeding hatred.
Forgiving sins, concealing crimes.
Just follow them and godless you shall be!

Infallible, an ultimate authority.
Without any explanation.
Manipulation, profiteering.
Money greedy hypocrites, power-hungry dotards.
Downtrodden believers, trapped within archaic structures.

Why don't you practice what you preach?
Why don't you practice what you preach?

Follow them and godless you will be.
Feeding the swayer, taunting the starving.
Worship creation, while agonizing creatures.

Just follow them and godless you shall be!
Godless you shall be!

Black hearts beating under snow-white cassocks.
Their golden beringed hands pray to a distressed icon.
Ancient traditions of justifying dark suppressors.

Follow them and godless you will be.
Preaching love, but feeding hatred.
Forgiving sins, concealing crimes.
Just follow them and godless you shall be!
