Struck Down By Me

Calling you out for the last time

Come show your face for the first time

I've got a head full of questions

And a busted heart filled with lies

Won't spend one second on my knees

Will not be thankful for what I have not asked for

Or apologize for hating all that my eyes see

This solution is my salvation

Life is too slippery for books clarice

The time has passed for tricks like faith and grace

The beast laughs more and more everyday

Evil has never been afraid to show it's face

Just look to the front page

Look into the face of the starving

Or infants born with a disease they will never understand

For every miracle one million bodies

Piled high in your name

I'm calling you out

Come show your face

Stand before me

I will destroy you

Shed your mask and I will destroy you

The priests that serve so proudly in your sons name

As sick as any monster that walks the streets

And I'd walk away just to see you cry

Leading young boys into the hell

That they have preached against

Once

You tell me how they can ever trust in

Cause loving words are only words when loving words mean nothing

One single word that you have said

Your empire has been built on the guilt of the meek

To your heart...And I walked away

So many lives imprisoned

And I haven't seen, seen that smile for a while

And a shame that spins out of control in your name

And now I'm choking on my self-segregated heart

Young Tommy who finds you only in his father's shiny handguns

Marches his truth straight into school

Points the barrel and pulls the trigger

And bodies turn into colored rain

Tell me a story I can believe

Look me in the eye

And tell me a story that you believe
