Eternity X - The Confession lyrics

"Forgive me Father, for I am about to sin" "My God" Smiling like a glad man Frowning like a sad man Feeling like a goddamn fool It's a con game And they say that God will forgive me Amnesty for repenting here How can he? Hello father, Father please help me, Tell me that God will forgive me now! Listen closely! Forgive me father I have sinned I did another preacher in at confession What's the matter now? Mr. Holier than thou Self righteous fool I'll show you religion And justice Was about 3 years ago I had a daughter, 12 years old She was my life My essence Taught her to obey the cross The Father, Son, and the Holy Ghost And the Good Book And your type She became his virgin prize Dead and raped and sacrificed! Behind closed doors In darkened rooms I'm so sick and tired Hypocritical liars You! So you speak for God here? What does he say now? Is he gonna help you? Will he forgive...me? Father I see you wanna know what lies behind this icy stare Don't dig my head for remorse in this, trust me it's not there I'd rather talk about you and where you fit in this And why you all act like God and all that pertains to it You say that you speak in his name but how can you forgive The rapists and the k**ers? I don't believe God ever did What I need to know here is why God only talks through you I can a**ure you, Mr. Holy Man, God talks to me too Just not in a million dollar church with gold frames He speaks to me any place, to God it's all the same Have you heard enough information? Hey father are you afraid of me? You should be I've said all that I need to! Thank you for letting me speak my peace It's a wonder Get down on your knees! That's right you better plead, it's the last time You will pray Tell me do, do you forgive me? Tell me do, do you still love me father?? I need to know Has my soul been sold? Is God here with you? Does he love me? Does he love me? Does he love me, too? Confession's over...
