lyrics

give up yourself give up thats what they wanna see
heaven beholds a place for everyones belief
but it's gone away like a distant memory
falling into sea thats burning souls

burry yourself beneath that little oath again
onto your knees you'll feel a little closer then
but it's gone away
every word you thought was true - misread and consumed
it's not your fault - I know

I don't believe in hell
I don't believe in god aswell
stories are for the kids
we have some real crooks and thiefs
hiding behind the faith
I can't believe you still live by that tale

give up yourself give up and leave the books the lead
closer to god but heaven isn't what it seemed
it's gone away
use your hunger and your hands and build your own faith
it's not your foe to know

everything we've made can always be exploited by evil thinking men
but it's not the fault of science and creators - their purpose wasn't bad
you can not ignore technology and progress 'cause you don't understand
got to learn to use the knowledge and the tools will then always be our friend
