False God

Rowan White

Do you hear the screams?
Do you hear the weaps?
All the damed souls you send,
Into the demise that you and,
The others made in the name of God,
That was in noway close to any lord.
Guard abandoned with a broken sword,
Bound by chains you ignored.
Who do you dare to now blame?
The innocent folk you burn in the "holy" flame?
