Only Stories

I could never figure out how faith in a myth could be your guide
It's an entertaining story but it never should provide
And I couldn't care less how insanely blessed they all are in that room
If a god really existed they'd be doomed

Well, fuck this lot and their weird doctrines
They leave me here, appalled
I am proud to be a heretic
They're only stories after all

It's a way to keep down peoplе, it's a way to preordain
It includes plain inequality, it dividеs where love should reign
And the ones who lead have a license to feed little boys and little girls
With food for the mind, extras aside they'll try not to confirm

So fuck this lot and their weird doctrines
They leave me here, appalled
I am proud to be a heretic

If you're ever tempted to get closer, know they play it well
There's a land of milk and honey, and they know how to sell
You can do what you want if you go to confession now and then
And the lord provides, all will be fine with a loud and clear amen

Well, fuck this lot and their weird doctrines
They leave me here, appalled
I am proud to be a heretic
They're only stories after all

Fuck this lot and their weird doctrines
They leave me here, appalled
I am proud to be a heretic
They are only stories after all
