If your attitude is representative
Then does it matter if we continue to live?
Don't suggest a savior
No-one died for my transgressions
No-one died for my sins
No-one died for me
Apart from my family
If you claim you're the one that I am to believe
Then why insist on driving all these different holes through me?
Don't suggest forgiveness
Yeah if it's me you want upon your side
Then tell me why it's causing those on other sides to die
Don't suggest neglegence
Or lack of repentance
No-one died for my transgressions
No-one died for my sins
No-one died for me
Apart from my family
Apart from my family
I can't allow you to martyr me
Grant past enemies a posthumous victory
Stop trying to deny what I chose to believe
People have been killed so I can be who I can be
Yeah even if I don't believe in the stories
The things people of wisdom have told me
I can't count the millions who have died being who I'm free to be
Don't want them to have died for nothing
