We've forgotten what is sacred
We've forgotten what is sacred
Not love, not culture, not family or nature

Everybody follow me, I will show you the way
I know all the ins and outs
Of how this world should be turning
With God as my leader, I'll feed you all kinds of lies
And you'll believe me
'Cause even God has lost his name with time

Time after time, his name has been misused
Manipulation through fear
To get you to adhere
Empty threats without proof, will only lead to paranoia
If we don't think for ourselves, well then what do we got?

We've forgotten what is sacred
In this fast-paced world
We take and keep taking
Without thinking of what we're giving

Oh, nothing is sacred in this fast-paced world
Not love, not culture, not family or nature

Suburbia land, where everything is made easy
Don't worry, we'll wipe you clean of your identity
Supermarkets and box malls for your convenience
All the Ma and Pop stores, no longer have your allegiance

With cookie cutter houses, cars and jobs
We'll all be the same, we won't have to think anymore
About our neighbors gossiping, about our freaky differences
We won't have to worry, won't have to take any chances
