Religion
is the death of God
conscripting Him away

Cloaked in false
propriety
enlightenment at bay

Religion
is the death of God
scriptures to mislead

All piety
a false disguise
worshipping the creed

Religion
is the death of God
whose armies rage and burn

Killing
in the name of One
—whose love they claim to yearn
