Lyrics for Freedom Is the Wage of Sin

Mandated since none of them knew How to transcend moral codes that are presumed Unthinkable? Inconceivable? Cower in a corner and keep the heresy stowed Freedom is the wage of sin No universal (theoretical) force of influence Should dictate behaviour that we can't handle ourselves Freedom is the wage of sin Permission - the abdication of our self-determination Think... think for a minute Of centuries of perpetuating Bloodshed, deception, oppression Think... think for a minute Of centuries of subjugating Martyrs superstitions The evidence is damning and conclusive - That intervention Is not advancing or easing hardships Still we're strangely so duty-bound
