Hands of God

I used to believe
But now my belief turns to dust
At the feet of the altar
The altar of lust
Like a lamb to the slaughter
Drowned in holy water
Held below by my shame

Beg for forgiveness at the feet of the one
Who knows both heaven and hell
Kneel for confession, you bastard
This is the first and second death

The saints are raising hell
They say we did it to ourselves
We did it to ourselves
The saints are raising hell
They say we did it to ourselves
Broken bodies; reduce them to nothing
Broken spirits just longing for substance

Madonna weeps for her children
Fathers tear at their robes
Out of sight, out of mind
Out of control

Lay me down to rest
Rip out my heart from my chest
And wash the guilt from you bloodstained hands
Lay me down to rest
Lay me down to rest
This is the first and second death

The saints are raising hell
They say we did it to ourselves
Broken bodies; reduce them to nothing
Broken spirits just longing for substance
Broken bodies, reduce them to nothing
Broken spirits, just longing for substance
Guilty followers, disciples of fraud
Suffocated by the Hands of God

Guilty followers, disciples of fraud
Suffocated by the Hands of God

The saints are raising hell
They say we did it to ourselves
This is the first and second death
There's no sanctuary here
Suffocated by the Hands of God
No sanctuary
No sanctuary here
