As You're Told

morality strikes, put your mind to the scale if you're willing
you know just where you stand
there's a fine line from faith to corruption
we grow up hating others' perceptions
wrong is right in this world that we live in
how could you kill to appeal to some fucking religion
just do as you're told, do as you're told

deep beneath you must lay a reason
besides the stories your faith has told you
continue to believe, without questioning

we live and we learn, but for some minds are set in upbringing
you know only beliefs that were planted inside you so early
life is short, it can pass in a heartbeat
waste away to amount to something
how could you kill to appeal to some fucking religion
just do as you're told, do as you're told
