Fear the Gods You Created by EL CARO Lyrics
When the ancient ones try to force their fears on you
Old world mysticism bread by shame
Hold on, the time will come when prayers will mean
No more, than crumpled leaves in the autumn wind
When you look down at the shackles on your wrist
Held on by a tradition of faceless guilt
The world will change when we change ourselves
No deity will save us from ourselves
Our fight’s within, and every day we make the choice
Live with the fear of the known and unknown
But we must put it aside, we can’t cling to the superstitions of our fathers
We can’t be held back by the voices of our mothers
But we change for no one, and we’re tied to the burden of their restricted lives
Old world mysticism bread by shame
Hold on, the time will come when prayers will mean
No more, than crumpled leaves in the autumn wind
When you look down at the shackles on your wrist
Held on by a tradition of faceless guilt
The world will change when we change ourselves
No deity will save us from ourselves
Our fight’s within, and every day we make the choice
Live with the fear of the known and unknown
But we must put it aside, we can’t cling to the superstitions of our fathers
We can’t be held back by the voices of our mothers
But we change for no one, and we’re tied to the burden of their restricted lives
