Upon The Religion Of The Ever Thoughtless

Religion! Religion, you mighty whore

Look upon, what the man hath done to thee


Thy is a fiend of thine own misfortune

Thy world crawls far away from acting soberly, swiftly


You indeed lived a life full of pomp and glory for ages

Tonight, the body hath you conquered; how does it feel, true misery?


We laugh at thy ill-state and we may do so shamelessly

Tis’ the revenge of our dark-side, and we do not treat you kindly, intentionally


There is a reason, behind the rebellion; the ego craves the world entire

HA HA! How absurd; the dream of life, yet, to lust all is nigh obligatory


We kid thee not when we profess; we wish death unto thee

May you be ravaged by the dogs of hell; mercilessly, till the end of eternity!





Who is God to tell us right from wrong, and wisdom from falsehood?

Our question is basic and human, please, answer us simply


We came into this world, not knowing from where and how

Someday, do place a wilting wreath whereupon we lie silently


You are created to unite us all, that you’ve been introduced to disperse peace

Alas! We the mankind, took you for granted, ever so blamelessly


A thousand boulders from the deepest pits of the Hell; befall

upon my person, for I’ve at last dared to speak truthfully


In the house of glittering decay, all is that was ever wanted from life

The cold pistons of the Armageddon have moved an iota more, per the divine decree


Soon, very soon now, all’ll be no more; HA HA! And of this I am sure

Stay humble, Oh! You lost shepherd, the end is closer than we may agree


But, who is this one? How and why does he wish to awaken us from the dream?

Begone! You traitor before we change our mind and shank you repeatedly


Another false one, eh! Look at that one now; all blue, black and bloody

Man! I say, fuck him! And come let’s rejoin the party… HA HA!
