No Need for Pretence

Give in, give up
Base your life on what they say
In their eyes a burning fire
People being led astray
When they get up
Don't get don't on your knees
This isn't what he wants
Don't take this out on me

People talk as if they know
But words have power
Don't mislead me with your own
If you become a coward
We are told and we obey
And nobody goes against
So when arrives the judgment day
We'll see who really past the test

Why am I scared
The world has tainted faith
The words that leave your mouth
Are nothing more than fake
So when I die
And I stand at the pearly gates
I don't want your false teachings
To be the reason I was led astray

No need for pretense
I know just what you've done
So many people will never know
They haven't done enough
These are friends, these are family
Digging their own graves
Somebody tell these people
They've got no clue what it takes

Why am I scared
The world has tainted faith
The words that leave your mouth
Are nothing more than fake
So when I die
And I stand at the pearly gates
I don't want your false teachings
To be the reason I was led astray

I won't let your pseudo teaching
Take me to a place I don't belong
I have wept and I was bleeding
But now I have healed I am strong
I have wept and I was bleeding
But now I have healed I am strong
I have wept and I was bleeding
But now I have healed I am strong

Take me to a better place
Take me to a better place
