Pull the curtain from over your eyes See beyond the constructed lies Stop your judging and demented cries Of those whose point of view you deny Feign ignorance to the truth you will not see Watch the tide rise as common sense recedes Hunker down in your dogmatic cocoon Only to emerge and naive buffoon Logic and science are trickery and bewitchment Such are the thoughts of the ignorant   Stick to your beliefs and fears like glue For you read it in a sacred book so it must be true Ask no questions and deny no absolutes See where that takes you if you are so resolute Watch the world crumble around you and blame the devil For hes the creator of all ills and evil revel Watch the powers that be consume and destroy As they take away all living things health and joy Pretend I offend your moral code But deep down inside you fester with hypocritical mold To NOT ask questions and seek new ways Is to annihilate the future of all earthly days

Questions of Morality
Pull the curtain from over your eyes See beyond the constructed lies Stop your judging and demented cries Of those whose point of view you deny Feign ignorance to the truth you will not see Watch the tide rise as common sense recedes Hunker down in your dogmatic cocoon Only to emerge and naive buffoon Logic and science are trickery and bewitchment Such are the thoughts of the ignorant   Stick to your beliefs and fears like glue For you read it in a sacred book so it must be true Ask no questions and deny no absolutes See where that takes you if you are so resolute Watch the world crumble around you and blame the devil For hes the creator of all ills and evil revel Watch the powers that be consume and destroy As they take away all living things health and joy Pretend I offend your moral code But deep down inside you fester with hypocritical mold To NOT ask questions and seek new ways Is to annihilate the future of all earthly days
