Pray and Suffer

Dying priest
In a pool of blood
Dying priest
In the jaws of death

You speak of god
And his son who died
You speak of god
Saviour of mankind

You speak of god
Phantasm built on lies
You speak of god
Who does not rule this world

Suffer in a world of sin
Pray and suffer

You speak of god
And seven deadly sins
You speak of god
Divine punishment

You speak of god
And the holy ghost
You speak of god
Kneeling before the cross

Imperfect and impotent
Jehovah is no redeemer
Cast aside, irrelevant
Jehovah is no redeemer

You speak of god
Whose pale reward you seek
You speak of god
Who celebrates the meek

You speak of god
For whose mercy you plead
You speak of god
Who left his son to bleed

Imperfect and impotent
Jehovah is no redeemer
Cast aside, irrelevant
Jehovah is no redeemer

Suffer in a world of sin
Pray and suffer
Suffer

Oh dying priest now your end is nigh
You live without regrets when you die
Are you so sure about heaven's reward?
When you are left to die as a dog

You speak of god
Whom I cast aside
You speak of god
The architect of lies

You speak of god
His realm oblivious
You speak of god
Archon of suffering

Bleeding priest
In a pool of blood
Bleeding priest
In the jaws of death

Pray and cling to your cross
Pray and cry like a dog
As the blade thrusts through the veils
And you are left to bleed to death

Imperfect and impotent
Jehovah is no redeemer
Cast aside, irrelevant
Jehovah is no redeemer.
