Otep - God Is A Gun lyrics

[Otep - God Is A Gun lyrics]

A wounded world, an absent creator
Empty prayers fly through the
Air like burning paper

There's a monster in the garden
You call him god there's a monster in the
Garden eating you alive
The only religion I know is
Dripping from my pen
The only religion I know is
My lips kissing her skin
Out of the darkness, wolves will come
Out of the dark, the wolves will come

God is a gun and the bullets are free
God is a gun and it's targeting me
God is a gun and the bullets are free
God is a gun and it's on a shooting spree

There's a monster in the garden
You call him god there's a monster in the
Garden ripping us apart
The only religion I know is holy poetry
The only religion I know is the heat
Of her body next to me
Out of the darkness, wolves will come
Out of the dark, the wolves will come

Lost father hollow be thy name

Where were you when they screamed your name?
Where were you when the war began?
Where were you when the babies died?
Where were you when the mothers cried?
Where were you when they changed you name?
Where were you when in the darkest night?
Where were you when they pulled the trigger?
You were the gun in the hand of the killers!
You're just a myth you don't exist
Show yourself

You're not on the battlefield not
In the cancer wards out of the darkness
The wolves will claw at your door

God is a gun and the bullets are free
God is a gun and it's targeting me
God is a gun and the bullets are free
God is a gun and it's killing everything

A wounded world an absent creator
Empty prayers fly through the
Air like burning paper
