Weight Of The World
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Fighting to save our traditions
Pointless endeavors and missions
Talk is all I hear
Empty words
From the heart to your mouth
Impotent vision
Throwing stones from cathedrals
Empty pews
Dead institutions
Paying the fee
10 percent
Country club
Now you're in
Bankrupt religion
We do the same thing, every night, every day
Nothing has changed, nothing has changed, nothing!
A time will come, when silence is betrayal
A time will come, when our voices will not be heard
The years that we've chosen to say nothing, they'll return
The guilt, the shame, the pain and the anger
So, we break these chains
Of religion, of useless tradition
Moved to action – so we break these chains
Of a system that has coaxed us to sleep
Don't need religion – so we break these chains
Religion has never set men free
Religious guilt dies with me
Weight of the world!
Chains falling down
Weight of the world
Chains falling down!
I won't be buried in chains
I'm free from the shame
Religious guilt dies with me
Religious guilt dies
Judge
Judge
Judge. Jury. Execute
