    Story Behind the Song
    The one thing in this world that is forced upon us all the most is religion. Upon Crimson Wings believes that no one should be tied down to any religion if not desired. The many hypocrisies of religion often contradict its purpose to lead "a good life," when in reality this is not always needed. This of course is all about opinion, so here is ours.

    Lyrics
    United to false prophecy
    Millions stripped of innocence
    Religion contradicted by self-inflicted heresy
    Watch the lies burn and fume like incense
    A glowing sphere of fallacy
    Rotating backwards on an axis of descent
    Clandestine fears scream from the leprosy
    Monotonous cries with no accent

    CHORUS
    Kill or be killed, cherish yourself
    Your neighbor is a deceiving bastard
    Take a name in vain and go straight to hell
    Just watch the iconoclasts fall faster

    Children sent to fight a lost cause
    Hired hands stripped a land of all life
    Don’t forget your prayers and a silent pause
    Feed the hate that caused the endless fight
    Who can lead such a way of life so flawed
    Or rust in a world of assumptions
    That trusts in a wrong so right
    The peasants plagued by death could only scream and claw
    As suicide, unrealized, plagued the Christian knights

    CHORUS

    Blasphemers throw down your arms

    Perpendicular wooden fragments
    Create a cross with so much meaning
    Conspiracy and doubts augment
    The symbol of God has never been so demeaning
    Sodom and Gamorrah crushed in anger
    This should not be seen as justice
    I only see pure danger
    What would they do if God left everything in darkness?

    Abstractions in stained glass pour light into every mind. This is not Enlightenment; only influence to leave your opinions behind. Libation,
    an excuse to inebriate. The drunken, sacreligious sinning feel the
    need to procreate. Our children have been raised only to believe in
    the world's longest told fairy tale. Do not let another become one of
    the faceless; God is nothing, Satan is your own dark desire, heaven
    and hell are nothing but thoughts in a weak mind.
    And Jesus Christ is only would and nails.

    Blasphemers throw down your arms
    Mindless followers can do no harm
    They are brainwashed and dependent
    Without a myth they can have no penance
    What would they do if their God left everything in darkness?
