Topeka Lyrics by Amongst Heroes

2012

Staring unseeing at the world
Facing opposition to your every breath
Hate lies in your mouth like a gun
Cocked and ready to go off
Ready to go!
Structures and concepts of a higher power
Built on wrath and viewed through a crooked lens
Give a grim premonition of disaster
Leaving caskets for the dead
White flags fly skyward
Covering placards of lies
All in the name of the Messiah
You have a mind, but where is your heart?
Everything that you hold close
Can only distance you from the world!
The hostile song that you sing
Will never bring you anything but derision
If this is what you believe, so be it
I can't respect your decision
You only focus on the pain to be brought down
On this broken vessel
We attempt to mend!
The condemnation you sow, you'll reap tenfold
The warped heaven in which you see yourselves will never be my home
What God would die so you could ruin hope?
I refuse to believe your perversion of truth
And if acceptance damn me
Then send me straight to your hell!
Armed with a holy book
And speaking in riddled verse
Still you ignore the basis
Of the the faith you claim
Were not the words of the saviour:
"Judge not, lest ye be judged."
Try as I ever might
I will never comprehend
I will never understand how you
How you've forgotten love
What God would die for you?
Oh!
What God would die so you could ruin hope?
I refuse to believe you
This is not the truth
And If acceptance damn me
Then send me straight to your hell!
