Jeff Hanneman - Read Between The Lies lyrics

[Lyrics: Araya, King; Music: Hanneman] Evangelist you claim God speaks through you Your restless mouth full of lies gains popularity You care not for the old that suffer When empty pockets cry from hunger Penniless from their generosity Sharing their money to quench your greed Searching for the answer to their prayers They cry their last wish of need Save me His spirit lives and breathes in me The almighty transformed to your screen The meanings lost in its translation No holy words, describe his deception You say you'll help us find the lord Tell me preacher how do you know A simple quest for a visible savior To lead us through our final prayer Save me Send your donations Contribute to the cause Luxuries Your righteous reward? Praise the lord, praise god Is what you wish to sell There is no heaven without a hell [LEAD: HANNEMAN] In your mind's eye could you truly believe That by giving you can save your soul Could you be so naive! You heal the sick,[you] raise the dead You blind the congregation With the things you say Religious blackmail a deceit of trust That d**h will come and all will be lost Can you hear the serpents call Look deep in those deceiving eyes Ignore the writing on the wall You should read between the lies When doubt subsides his honesty An inquiry, is it blasphemy? Impure the soul, that's made to suffer No sermons left to hide or cover An empty promise, lie unfulfilled To steal a dream or get it k**ed They claim your trip to heavens nearby You may believe it but satan wouldn't lie.[Lyrics: Araya, King; Music: Hanneman] Evangelist you claim God speaks through you Your restless mouth full of lies gains popularity You care not for the old that suffer When empty pockets cry from hunger Penniless from their generosity Sharing their money to quench your greed Searching for the answer to their prayers They cry their last wish of need Save me His spirit lives and breathes in me The almighty transformed to your screen The meanings lost in its translation No holy words, describe his deception You say you'll help us find the lord Tell me preacher how do you know A simple quest for a visible savior To lead us through our final prayer Save me Send your donations Contribute to the cause Luxuries Your righteous reward?
