As the guards march me out to the courtyard
Somebody cries from a cell "God be with you"
If there's a god, why has he let me down?
As I walk, my life drifts before me
Though the end is near, I'm not sorry
Catch my soul, its willing to fly away..
- Iron Maiden
In your mind's eye could you truly believe,
That by giving you can save your soul?
Could you be so naive?
You heal the sick, you raise the dead,
You blind the congregation
With the things you say.
Religious blackmail a deceit of trust,
That death will come and all will be lost.
When doubt subsides his honesty,
An inquiry, is it blasphemy?
Impure the soul, that's made to suffer,
No sermons left to hide or cover,
An empty promise, lie unfulfilled,
To steal a dream or get it killed.
They claim your trip to heavens nearby,
You may believe it but satan wouldn't lie.

Holy man open up your eyes
To the ways of the world you've been so blind
As the walls of religion come crashing down
How's the ignorance taste the second time around
-Slayer
Never! No never again!
Listen to me and believe what I say if you can
Never, this is the end
you know I've seen the faces of doom and I'm only a man
Help me, tell me I'm sane
I feel a change in the earth, in the wind and the rain
Save me, take me away
you know I've seen some creatures from hell and I've heard what they say..
-Black Sabbath
The war tear just drags along
But oh God it's growing strong
It's time again ourselves to spare
It's just the violence everywhere
Religion is hate
Religion is fear
Religion is war
Religion is rape
Religion's obscene
Religion's a whore
Jesus is pain
Jesus is gore
Jesus is the blood that's spilled in war
He's everything
He's all things dead
He's pulling on the trigger
Pointed at your head
-Slayer
