DREAM THEATER lyrics : "In The Name Of God"

How can this be?
Why is he the chosen one?


Saint gone astray
With a scepter and a gun


Learn to believe
In the mighty and the strong


Come bleed the beast
Follow me it won't be long


Listen when the prophet
Speaks to you
Killing in the name of God


Passion
Twisting faith into violence

In the name of God

Straight is the path

Leading to your salvation
Slaying the weak
Ethnic elimination


Any day we'll all be
Swept away

You'll be saved
As long as you obey


Lies
Tools of the devil inside
Written in Holy disguise

Meant to deceive and divide
Us all


Listen when the prophet
Speaks to you
Killing in the name of God


Passion
Twisting faith into violence

In the name of God

Blurring the lines

Between virtue and sin
They can't tell
Where God ends

And mankind begins

They know no other

Life but this
From the cradle
They are claimed


Listen when the prophet
Speaks to you

Killing in the name of God

Passion

Twisting faith into violence
In the name of God
Hundreds of believers

Lured into a doomsday cult

All would perish

In the name of God

Self-proclaimed messiah

Led his servants
To their death
Eighty murdered

In the name of God

Forty sons and daughters

Un-consenting plural wives
Perversions
In the name of God

Underground religion

Turning toward
The mainstream light
Blind devotion
In the name of God


Justifying violence
Citing from the Holy Book
Teaching hatred
In the name of God


Listen when the prophet
Speaks to you
Killing in the name of God

Passion

Twisting faith into violence
In the name of God

Religious beliefs
Fanatic obsession
Does following faith

Lead us to violence?

Unyielding crusade
Divine revelation
Does following faith
Lead us to violence?
