I never really understood religion

Except it seems a good excuse to kill

I never really could make a decision

I don't suppose I ever really will

I can't relate to any power structure

Where ego is the driving energy

I let mine go a long, long time ago, now

When I decided that I would be free

The only thing I understand is living

The biggest sacrifice is death

And once you're dead there's nothing left for giving

So life means fighting for your every breath
