Alive Lyrics by Hypocrisy

A Taste of Extreme Divinity

2009

[Verse 1]
You call yourself a God, I call you a liar
I'll take your crucifix and stab through your heart
Reclaim my past, don't need no sympathy, I only wanna be me
And not religious fantasy world

[Refrain]
Brainwash the weak, steal all you can steal
Defenseless mind of the dumber kind
The church is working overtime

[Chorus]
The book of lies becomes alive again
Translated, twisted, read between the lines
The ancient book is still alive
And now they cannot tell the truth from lies

[Verse 2]
Convince you that you're nothing, and nothing but dirt
You don't contribute — you're no son of God
Donate your life and money that you earn
Ooh, if you wanna see the light, you gotta sacrifice

[Refrain]
Brainwash the weak, steal all you can steal
Defenseless mind of the dumber kind
God is working overtime

[Chorus]
The book of lies becomes alive again
Translated, twisted, read between the lines
The ancient book is still alive
And now they cannot tell the truth from lies

[Bridge]
Don't want to live in sin?
They will make you learn
If you're gonna sin
Then you're gonna burn!

[Chorus]
The book of lies becomes alive again
Translated, twisted, read between the lines
The ancient book is still alive
And now they cannot tell the truth from lies
