Lyrics

[00:24.22] A childhood innocence was drowned in your tears
[00:30.47] The demons that you fought are feeding your fears
[00:37.10] The poisoned secrets of your life stand revealed
[00:44.16] The truth destroys you, its no longer concealed
[00:51.92]
[00:52.67] Dear Father forsaken
[00:58.23] You knew what you were doing
[01:05.22] In silence your violence has left my life in ruin, yeah!
[01:24.85] In ruin, yeah!
[01:32.46]
[01:32.86] You preyed upon my flesh then prayed for my soul
[01:39.49] Belief betrayed by lust, the faith that you stole
[01:46.55] Indoctrination by a twisted desire
[01:53.42] The catechism of an evil messiah
[01:59.99]
[02:01.05] Dear Father forgive me
[02:07.24] I know just what I'm doing
[02:14.74] In silence this violence will leave your life in ruin, yeah!
[02:34.07] In ruin, yeah!
[02:38.69]
[03:16.64] Preacher of theocracy hiding your hypocrisy
[03:30.49] Under a false sanctity holy phoney empathy
[03:45.43] You have taken my life
[03:48.08] Now it's your turn to die!
[03:53.01]
[04:08.01] Can you sleep at night?
[04:10.75] When you close your eyes do you think of all the pain from your lies?
[04:21.09] Or do you deny you're responsible for the victims of the sins you devised?
[04:33.58]
[04:35.66] What you gonna tell them when they ask you?
[04:38.52] Well then is your conscience pure in your heart?
[04:41.92] There is no exemption when you seek redemption
[04:45.29] For all the lives that you've torn apart!
[04:50.42]
[05:03.69] Your molestations of the cross you defiled
[05:09.79] A man once holy now despised and reviled
[05:16.35] You took possession while confessing my sins
[05:22.73] And now you have to face whatever death brings, yeah!
[05:30.29]
[05:30.98] Dear Father forsaken
[05:37.17] You knew what you were doing
[05:43.67] In silence your violence has left my life in ruin, yeah!
[06:02.80] In ruin, yeah, yeah, yeah!
[06:10.49] In ruin, yeah!
[06:14.93]
[06:15.93]
[06:16.93]
