"New Religion"

Welcome to your life
We have got you in our sights
And thoughts of God are better left alone
It's in your head black and blue

What they told you wasn't true
Come along and fight the unknown
The army's grown

We'll pray to all the wrong decisions, Woah oh oh
This time you'll show all that you can be, Woah oh oh
Grab your weapons now, we'll run against the crowd
And changing history

So, let's take the vow
We will show you how
Your time has come for the new religion
Your voice is proud

Be your saviour now
The battles won for the new religion

No one can defeat what the congregation speaks
Bound together the flag that we defend
They made a fool out of you
But you knew just what to do

Raise your fists up and stand until the end
Amen

We'll pray to all the wrong decisions, Woah oh oh
This time you'll show all that you can be, Woah oh oh
Grab your weapons now, we'll run against the crowd
And changing history

So, let's take the vow
We will show you how
Your time has come for the new religion
Your voice is proud

Be your saviour now
The battles won for the new religion

Come now and imagine with me
Taking back a world that once was ours
Let's regain the power
And then we will end what we've begun

Let's take the vow
We will show you how
Your time has come for the new religion
Your voice is proud

Be your saviour now
The battles won for the new religion

We are the unholy
We are the bastard sons of your media culture
Our minds, eyes and bodies were born of your exclusion
And illusion you hide behind

You don't love a God, you love your comfort
To you were are filth, we are dirty, so be it
We are dirty and unclean, a congregation of the unseen
Together we will set this world on fire

This is the new religion
Amen

Deaf, blind
It's getting hard to breathe
Dark dreams become reality
Cold creeps - underneath my skin
Screams in the night
The walls are closing in

Maybe I'm condemned,
But time will tell
Soon I'm standing
At the gates of hell

Save me from myself
Take away the pain
Catch me when I fall
Hear my call - a life in vain
I need someone
To save me from myself

Lost, out of reach
Wounds will never heal
Crawl in the dust
Feel the way I feel

Maybe I'm condemned,
But time will tell
Soon I'm standing
At the gates of hell

Save me from myself
Take away the pain
Catch me when I fall
Hear my call - a life in vain
I need someone
To save me from myself

I'm at the dark side of life
In the shadows where no one belongs
And I try to find my way back
But I'm lost, lost without hope...

I've been now sauntering
Out and down the path sometime
Come on, it takes me nowhere, which I knew
Faces everywhere pulling grins and signs in things
Telling me not there, man, it's no go
Don't go there boy

I need a reason
I can't think without one now
Too much learning got to show
Call it treason
Maybe catch her, don't know how
Too many things, too much to know

Bring my timing in, seagulls gather on the wind
Lady screaming, lady leave me out
'Cause sometimes people stare
Coming down, electric chair
And steaming crowds they gather and they shout

Don't know why this evil bothers me
Take another chance boy, carry the fight,
You can take him if you're fast
So why is he trying to follow me?
Didn't I say if you're holding on
You'd be laughing at the last
How many reasons do they need?
I get along fine with them friends of mine
But you have to make a choice
I might just believe this time
You're singing out of tune but the beat's in time
And it's us who makes the noise

I'm talking for free, I can't stop myself,
It's a new religion
I've something to see, I can't help myself,
It's a new religion

Okay, my reasoning might be clouded by the sun
But someone sees the departmental lie
You know this peacetime jabbing fist in stabbing knife
Only get one look before you die

Don't know why this evil bothers me
Take another chance boy, carry the fight,
You can take him if you're fast
So why is he trying to follow me?
Didn't I say if you're holding on
You'd be laughing at the last
How many reasons do they need?
I get along fine with them friends of mine
But you have to make a choice
I might just believe this time
You're singing out of tune but the beat's in time
And it's us who makes the noise

I'm talking for free, I can't stop myself,
It's a new religion
I've something to see, I can't help myself,
It's a new religion

Gotta take pay the saints 'n sinners
In regulation hats 'n scarves 'n things
Walking in formation down the lane,
They carry their cross, make a church bell ring
Army majors pull a mean cool truth,
There lying in a swimming pool
Searching for the undeniable truth that
A man is just a fool

Don't know why this evil bothers me
Take another chance boy, carry the fight,
You can take him if you're fast
So why is he trying to follow me?
Didn't I say if you're holding on
You'd be laughing at the last
How many reasons do they need?
I get along fine with them friends of mine
But you have to make a choice
I might just believe this time
You're singing out of tune but the beat's in time
And it's us who makes the noise

I'm talking for free, I can't stop myself,
It's a new religion
I've something to see, I can't help myself,
It's a new religion
[repeat to fade]

Well it struck me just this morning,
I haven't got a single thing to do.
And you know that got me thinking,
Even though I never thank it through.
Uh huh, make it real.
Uh huh.

Gimme some new religion,
Something that I can feel.
Gimme some new tomorrow,
Bring it on and make it real.
I'm drowning in sweet forgiveness,
Come on baby turn my life, yeah.

Well the times they are a changin',
So ring the bell and let the people know.
And I need a new direction,
To get me to the place I need to come.

Gimme some new religion,
Something that I can feel.
Gimme some new tomorrow,
Bring it on and make it real.
I'm drowning in sweet forgiveness,
Come on baby turn my life, yeah.

Maybe I'll go tomorrow,
Maybe I'll leave today.
The easiest pain to follow,
Is going out on my way.
Honey yeah, please forgive me,
Everything will be okay.

Gimme some new religion,
Something that I can feel.
Gimme some new tomorrow,
Bring it on and make it real.
I'm drowning in sweet forgiveness,
Come on baby and turn my life yeah.
Yeah, yeah

Take me
Raise me above
Take me
This undying love
What once was, I wish to no longer see
Wings of hatred, come set me free

You are the air in which I breathe
You are the blood I drink and bleed
These words beyond forever true
My new religion is you

Forsake me
It is you that I serve
Take me
This undying love

You are the air in which I breathe
You are the blood I drink and bleed
These words beyond forever true
My new religion is you
