lyrics

Here to Suffer

It seems the current price of original sin
Is preventing the poor from being asked to join in
The good book demands that we all join hands
And bow down, accepting our fate
But we’re all here to suffer, on this point I think we relate

There's a method to the slaughter, rounding up our sons and daughters
Sacked and drowned them in the waters, spare the rod and spoil the child
A lamentation for the meek. You inherit nothing being weak
Witness the crimson of the creek. In God's eyes, we're all defiled
Savior on the mound and disciples in the mud
Washing their hands with the innocents blood
Preacher at the pulpit, parish in the pews
Ask the lord for guidance when they hear the news
We're here to suffer

Witness the sermon on amounts. Salvation offers no discounts
How much you give is tantamount to the value of your sins
(Pay up, everybody wins)

There's a method to the slaughter, rounding up our sons and daughters Sacked and drowned them in the waters, spare the rod and spoil the child
A lamentation for the meek. You inherit nothing being weak
Witness the crimson of the creek. In God's eyes, we're all defiled

Speaker at the podium, lemmings fill the joint
Beg their lord's forgiveness from the lowest point
President addresses while the nation falls for
A policy resulting in a holy war
We're here to suffer
It seems the current price of original sin
Is preventing the poor from being asked to join in
The good book demands that we all join hands
And bow down, beholden to thee
But we’re all here to suffer, on this point I think we agree
