Grifter

Over and over and over again
You've got quite the story to tell me my friend
Eternity is what you say you seek
So fucking righteous the mind of the weak

Oh, your salvation
Lies

In goes the money and out comes the hate
No decent human deserves that fate
You wish ill on those who seek love
Nothing about you is righteous or just
You think that you've got God on your side
Twist your beliefs to pass over your pride
Pick and choose pieces to serve your own needs
I despise your mindset and the hate that it breeds

Oh, your salvation
Lies

I am so over your little grift
I'd like to see you bound at the wrists
You produce nothing of any value
Just a bullhorn for the shit that you spew
You are darkness, you are disease
You are lies, hate, the king of the thieves
Deception, the source of your wealth
No love for anyone except yourself
But I'll be the light, the love, and the hope
I'll be the hand at the end of the rope
I believe in love and live honestly
I'll treat you as you should treat me

Oh, your salvation
Lies

Over and over and over again
I'll protect those who suffer your sins
Here's to the land that you've torn out the spine of
I'll fight for those who only seek love

I'll be the light, the love, and the hope
I'll be the hand at the end of the rope
I believe in love and live honestly
I treat you as you should treat me

Light, love, and hope
