Lyrics:
Prophets preach ancient lies, from their golden thrones,
Hungry dogs gnash their teeth, on heaps of broken bones.
World that’s lost its empathy, common evil holds its shape,
In this sunken path we follow, we’ll find no escape.

Monsters in the mirror, wearing righteous masks,
Behind those hollow eyes, the truth is what we ask.
Irreconcilable differences, tearing us apart,
The darkness of religion, corrodes and kills the heart.

The gospel gets twisted, into corrupted tongue,
Words of salvation, turned to poison sung.
We can only be what you choose to see,
We’ll only be some Sinister Force to thee.

God’s word perverted in the hearts of men,
Blinded by the sins they will not condemn.
Scripture roils like sludge from a poisoned well,
Cling to ideology, that leads you all to hell.

Facades now crumble, the temple’s burning down,
Our greater numbers reject your renown.
We can only be what you choose to see
We’ll only be some Sinister Force to thee.

[Guitar Solo]

Poison ideology, with a caustic creed,
Spitting lies like venom, for self-serving greed.
Corruption is a demon, with a thousand eyes,
Indifference is the sin, of all mankind.

Facades now crumble, the temple’s burning down,
Our greater numbers reject your renown.
We can only be what you choose to see
We’ll only be some Sinister Force to thee.
