The only way to the Father is through the Son
To me that sounds like some Scorcese film while a man stares down the barrel of a gun
Who's to say that my own good deeds will not count if I don't happen to believe, or if I'm taking time to figure it out?
"Where are your morals from?" You inquire as you kneel to pray for me
With supposition that I am briefly lost or simply cannot see
Well I'll vote the devil before he shook my hand
Sharing a highball while surveying his land
I know he's evil but he sure can make me laugh
So I'll vote the devil cuz I will choose my own god damn path
So I am granted this asylum through partisan fellowship though abandoning all my relationships, this preamble's got nothing on the sum
Keep this in mind as I write you off near the end of the night
Salvation is so tempting yet devaluing all I've done in my life
"Grandma would be ashamed if she heard you question these ideals. So never beg any inquiry of this because trust me, these answers are real."
Well I'll vote the devil before he shook my hand
Sharing a highball while surveying his land
I know he's evil but he sure can make me laugh
So I'll vote the devil cuz I will choose my own god damn path
My son you seem distraught these days and anxious in the nights
The parish gathers here today and it seem 'end' is their only sight
Oh, dear brother, there's more to life than death and all the spoils it brings
Promised to you by an angel choir with dissonance they sing
Oh, dear sister, take my hand we'll travel down this beaten path
We'll hear a plethora of demons sharing gospels as we pass
and they chant
Well I'll vote the devil before he shook my hand
Sharing a highball while surveying his land
I know he's evil but he sure can make me laugh
So I'll vote the devil cuz I will choose my own god damn path
