Exodus - The Atrocity Exhibition

The glorious frailty of the human mind Leads us to deceive the mother of mankind Nature is our master, we serve her through our deeds She teaches us that only death is guaranteed If there was a hell, there must I ever be Eternal life in heaven is but a fallacy So if death is nothing, but a path to be trod Walk with me and let me introduce you to your God Come see an exhibition of atrocity An ocean of eternity One in which the shore you’ll never see Or your God of make believe You speak to the sky and no one answers back And yet you wager the word of God is fact The horrors we imagine in vivid clarity Become a spectacle, your God’s atrocities A mirror image, reflection of your soul Just nature’s play, all her children have a role God’s an actor, the world nature’s stage Our fates are scripted like so many letters on a page A composition of atrocity The Story of Christianity A fairy tale of tyranny Recipe for catastrophe [Solo: Gary] Man’s inclination Is to bend those who oppose to our will Does your great creator think the good are better made by ills? Dream after dream, time after time he who conquers endures The grand design of the mother We the disease, and her the cure [Solo: Lee] Unsatisfied longing for the slaughter The master often slays her sons and her daughters Death is but and undress of skin and of bone When you return to her, no sins to atone The ending is the same for the vile and devout Let all the poisons that lurk in the mind Hatch out She has predetermined our end Nothing more she will portend
