Lyrics

(Verse 1)
I was taught to believe in the invisible
And the silence called god they say made everything I see
I was taught to suffer for my sins
This contrition, it gets me a place in paradise

(Chorus)
I ask why should I believe a word you say?
Those words were written long ago
Give me proof, show me some evidence
I think you do it all for show

(Verse 2)
I was taught certain words would fall on open ears
Certain gestures of faith would sow the seeds of answered prayers
I was taught the more the better
Repetition, it gets me a place in paradise

:Chorus:

(Bridge)
But now I've got no faith
Won't sacrifice my autonomy for something I can't see

(2nd Bridge)
Kneel down and say your prayers, just do it
Ration my soul for your desire (x2)
