Religion

Murray Head

...It's not you it's the way you live
It's the hardest step to take in existence
Your mind is hanging back with persistence
Will you ever be certain
That there's anything at all behind 
the curtain of religion...
Is there more to life than self preservation
Should I really put myself to purgation
should I lie for tomorrow or
Another life, that seems more hollow
        - than religion
     - It's not there 
      - to share, what have I missed?
      
Esoterics for freak generics
      Listen to me I've tried Sufi
      What d'you know, what do you know      
They tell me that Religion
      Isn't such a new thing
      It started many years ago
      Don't you ever need to ask them
      What the hell they were doing
      Did they crucify their god
just for show?

Get baptized or you will never be buried
Before your heart and soul are being ferried
By our Charon, St. Peter - be sure
That you stock up your meter with
RELIGION
