Don't dare dream of a world unified
Nor share of this dream far and wide
For all before you who have tried have died
The hate inside never subsides
Every life is blessed you say
Yet toss out hundreds every day
Equal rights for you and me
Here comes the hidden bigotry
Our choices constantly observed
A realm of suffering inferred
Humanity has been interred
Our race enslaved by the absurd
I find that these ideas are flawed
That our creator hates us odd
Worldwide they all kneel and nod
And give their minds over to God
One less with the strength to think
One more let the poison drink
Deeper and deeper yet we sink
Deeper and deeper yet we sink
One less to fight for what is right
One more pledged to ignorant might
We have no hope left in sight
We have no hope left in sight
The ones who claim our will is free
Demand submission, idolatry.
You mean to say you cannot see?
Still can't glean the irony?
When you kneel down at night to pray,
Does anyone hear what you say?
Are the signs all white and black,
Or does lack make them seem grey?
You have never known dismay
Never seen true disarray
Your heart worships the light of day
Your heart worships the light of day
One less heart with the will to love
One more with their trust in "Up above."
In the serpent disguised as the dove
The serpent disguised as the dove
One less to seek out the truth
One more in line at heaven's ticket booth
Your only wisdom is in the tooth
Your only wisdom is in the tooth
One more with the gift of faith
Serving a phantasmal wraith
Bow before me the good lord saith
Bow before me the good lord saith
You think that you know
And that you've seen sufficient proof
But until you go
You're only wisdom's in your tooth
So raise a toast up to the ghost
And holy communion boast
So raise a toast up to the ghost
And sacrifice what matters most

- Ok Nietzsche, I think you should expand your vocabulary a bit before you try and make near perfect rhymes. 1/5
