About

This song is a harsh excoriation of religion, of Christianity in particular. It attacks the Bible’s contradictions, the devaluing of one’s mortal life in favor of a promise of Heaven, the manipulation of the masses by the government using religion, and the hypocrisy of believers who don’t read and u...

Reign Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Fuck this, I'm done arguing
Our fate is not bound to your cold foretelling
And the doctrine that you serve does not serve this discussion
Irrelevant nonsense disqualifies you

[Pre-Chorus]
It's a sonnet, there's no way to put a ribbon on it
While you're leaving, the rest of us will be here grieving
Cradling our reason

[Chorus 1]
Hallowed be thy name, thy shame
Sing the words in line and prey
Hallowed be thy name, thy shame
Walk willfully in reins

[Verse 2]
Hurricanes are coming like empires
Rising seas, your willful God's damning lake of fire
And your certainty dismisses solution
The result of our behavior is the reason that you run

[Pre-Chorus]
It's a sonnet, there's no way to put a ribbon on it
While you're leaving, the rest of us will be here grieving
Cradling our reason

[Chorus 2]
Hallowed be thy name, thy shame
Follow the party line and prey
Hallowed be thy shame, thy name
March willingly into wars

[Bridge]
Won't be named, won't be framed
Won't be strange
You and not just them
Will fight for land, hanging man
Will you still prey then?

[Verse 3]
I'm done arguing
Our fate is bound by innovation, not theory or fiction
That book you love but never read shouldn't leap into debate
Especially when your faith absolves you of empathy, acccountability

[Chorus 3]
Hallowed be thy name, thy shame
Sing the words in time and prey
Hallowed be thy name, thy shame
Fight for a home in the name in the name

[Outro]
In the name
In the name
We will be killing for it
