lyrics

"Lend me all your ears!", says the papal puppet standing tall behind...
The congregation's pulpit.

There is truth in the darkness,
Just as there is truth in light,
Well, I'm a regular non-believer of a guilt trip masquerading as life...

BRING IT DOWN! (4x)

From birth to coming of age I've learned to assimilate between right and wrong by and elder's cloth,
But who made them the authority?

Find what you believe.
Seek with open eyes.
Block hesitation and distraction.
Think clearly then decide...

Poking holes in deception: (of these) works of fiction sold as fact!
Advertise your bullshit "paradise" to those whom meet your standards...

ORGANIZE A DEATH TO RITES!
ORGANIZE!

We all broke the mold!
(We all broke the mold!)
With the creation of...
A merit based system to choose who wins a phantom's love...

Find what you believe.
Seek with open eyes.
Block hesitation and distraction.
Think clearly then decide...

You've gotta push it out! (2x)
OUT!

(Solo: Carlino)
(Solo: Oliver)

ORGANIZE A DEATH TO RITES!
ORGANIZE!

Find what you believe.
Seek with open eyes.
Block hesitation and distraction.
Think clearly then decide... (2x)

You've gotta push it out! (2x)
OUT!

BRING IT DOWN! (3x)
You're dead to rites...
