lyrics

there's no salvation in accepting a written fate
don't wait
for a judgement, that's a chain hidden by faith
don't pray
you think i should repent before it is too late
stay away
submission's not the life i want
submission's not the life i want

in the deafening silence of god
i just believe in myself

don't give blind trust to a book
this life can be both heaven and hell

don't need no sign
to know i'm alive

you believe in something they gave you
in the shapes it's been forged by their rules
have you ever wondered what's in your prayers?
have you noticed – the words that you say?

do you really think you need such a dogma?
don't you think you already have enough chains?
has it brought you to liberation
or has it made you another kind of slave?

manipulation
of the consciences through golden lies
makes you feel you're born with a sin
that you've never - committed in your life

i'm alive – don't want to be blind
i'm alive – don't need any guide to know i'm right
i'm alive – i can be the author of my life
i'm alive – i'll never bow down under your sign

i'm alive – don't want to be blind
i'm alive – don't need any guide to know i'm right
i'm alive – i can be the author of my life
i'm alive – i'll never bow down under your sign
