God is the reason we live in dismay
It is his will that this world's suffering
If we do not believe what you foretell
We can expect afterlife will be hell

You are the one who killed his own son
We are the ones you're blaming it on
Lust was created beginning with hymn
When we indulge we are guilty of sin
Torture our lives with confusion and lies
Mass contradiction, religious facades

Blame it on god
Blame it on god
Blame it on god, liar

Lord of salvation keep looking away
It is your will that this world goes astray
Take us each day from this place you unworthed
Unfulfilled promise of heaven on earth

You are the one who killed your own son
We are the ones your hatred is on
Children are dying and this you're content
Where is your profit in what you have left
No intervention from angels above
God is the reason that satan lives on.

    General Comment:I agree with Goldrain, I don't see how this song is offensive? Many of us have or have had doubts about God's existence and blame or have blamed him for the bad. I'm a Christian and I can understand how others feel.

    General Comment:I don't think anyone should take offense. I think this song describes how a lot of people feel. Don't we all sometimes blame God for the bad?
    I've blamed him all my life for some past stuff that have gone wrong in my life. I've questions a lot of things. Sometimes we're in deep mud through no fault of our own, and sometimes because of our own choices.
    Even if we can't feel him, I don't believe that he doesn't send a sign or something to tell us the way to get out of our muds. I'm certain that he sends people, signs, things to guide us through because though we blame and hate God, he still loves us and is always reaching out to us.
    No matter what we do, he loves us and he will forgive.

    My Opinion:What the fuck is this bull shit? How is this brutal Death Metal making us metal heads nerds? Your making a mistake. But you fuckers just keep talking shit! Do you not know how the fuck that shit is annoying? Seriously Christians just need to back the fuck off. And we need to get a life? Bull shit it's you who needs a life here talking about how BAD this band is. You know what fuck you! Go read your Christianity shitty bible and worship your worthless God.

    My Opinion:I thought this site was called : Song Meanings. Not Christians vs. Anti christians.
    I thought I was gonna get some ideas and opinions about what the meaning of this song is for some people.
    But instead I find all this nerdrage... People on the internet harassing eachother by no means, Just listen to yourselves. You've never met. You never will. You don't know peoples ages/religions/name. I can say that I'm christian when am a muslim its simple to lie about it.

    It's like watching the special olympics, holy shit you guys are retarded. Arguing on a website with random people. Get a freaking life. I thought this site was serious.

    General Comment:Metalheads, listen up: your bands are artless and laughable. Your scene is composed of antisocial misfits, pretentious stoners, and moronic sociopaths. You look ridiculous to the outside world, your supposed angst and darkness and brutality are downright comedic, and you are walking punchlines for those of us with standards. Get a life, nerds.
