Lyrics
Deception
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.
The smokescreen of deceit
To cloth the feeble mind
Answering our questions and need
The holy seduction of all mankind
Believe and reasoning are one
Proclaimed by the so called established
But without deceit the truth is gone
And the holy doctrine is dimnished
Seeing is believing
Believing is following
Using the world misery and pain
To show us how rotten we are
In the effort to maintain
The holy trinity - effort unreachable and far, effort unreachable and far
Seeing is believing
Believing is following
Following is religion
Religion is deception
Deception is LIFE
Portraying the famine of the world
To feed the need of the grees
Quenching of the underworld
Self preservation a man made disease
The smokescreen of deceit
To cloth the feeble mind
Answering our questions and need
The holy seduction of all mankind, of all mankind
Seeing is believing
Believing is following
Following is religion
Religion is deception
Deception is LIFE
