The Confession Lyrics - Eternity X

"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 killers? I don't believe God ever did 

What I need to know here is why God only talks through you 

I can assure 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...
