Evan Crowley - Were lyrics

I gave up on politics. We bought our freedom with dollars and cents. A country funded on religion and s**, forget the future, and remember to speak in present tense. Mega churches filled to the brim. Smoke machines wash away the sin. Write a check while you raise your hands, it's not about attendance but invite your friends Micro-brews and indie bands. Skinny jeans and hipster trends. Glorified social media sermons. Twenty-two ways to let the devil win. Love the sinner, hate the sin. Unless you're gay then you'll never get in. I'm just trying to make amends. Hell is no place for me and my friends The church gave up on me. Said I wasn't cut out for the "Jesus" thing. We have conflicting beliefs. They just wanted me to work for free The Lord showed up in a business suit. Skinny tie and leather boots. Forty minutes to promote his new book. Sheep being slaughtered beneath the jaws of wolves. I've worked behind the scenes. I've seen how faith can turn to greed. Politicians teaching you what to believe. You sold your soul to a marketing scheme When I die, do I have to go to heaven? I don't know if I can face the ones that I let down. Do I have to go to heaven? I can't face you now. I can't face you down. My eyes are open
