Devoid

Father forgive them, they know not what they've done
They've slain and buried your innocent ones
Following blindly in the name of faith
Disregarding your beloved's fate

Why do your people use your name
To absolve hate?
So many lives ignorance can desecrate

All the violence and all the pain
All the nations with ground blood stained
You pray for war, I pray for peace
The lust for hatred will never cease

Mothers and daughters, faces that will never be known
Innocent lives taken by government drones
Prejudice inspired by their own fears
Interventionism for the gain of profiteers

All the violence and all the pain
All the nations with ground blood stained
You pray for war, I pray for peace
The lust for hatred will never cease

Where is the grief for the innocent tombs?
Or is life only sacred inside of the womb?
Out of sight, out of mind
All the bodies left behind
Out of touch, out of time
Justify all your crimes

All the violence and all the pain
All the nations with ground blood stained
You pray for war, I pray for peace
The lust for hatred will never cease

All the violence and all the pain
All the nations with ground blood stained
You pray for war, I pray for peace
The lust for hatred will never cease
