Slaves of Fear

They speak of love and tolerance
But thrive on people's ignorance
To make you all
Slaves of fear
They feed on your anxiety
To build their dead society
They've kept you down
For a 1000 years

They nurture prejudice and hate
Condemn the wars that they create
In the name
Of whatever god
They gladly sacrifice your lifes
Increasing power is their prize
Without regrets
They'll spill your blood

They're feeding you lies
With calculating smiles
Enslavement of the human mind
As long as you kneel to their authority
Religion is what makes you blind

They're treating you as mindless fools
And use you as obedient tools
It's time to set
Your spirits free
This world we cannot tolerate
It's time to seal all preachers' fate
And let them hang
From Oden's tree

Your minds are restrained
Obedience is the chain
They've locked you up
And thrown away the key
Your souls are for sale
And you're the ones who pay
But still you'll never be set free
They're feeding you lies
With calculating smiles
Enslavement of the human mind
As long as you kneel to their authority
Religion is what makes you blind
