I have been tormented for years by christians about how my faith is unjust. I am consistantly called "Satanist" or "Anti-christ" (meaning the devil) because I am just not like everyone else. I think that there is a substantial reason for the way I believe and I don't wish to be told otherwise. I will believe what I want to and if anyone wants to argue with me, I am always up for a debate...

ODE TO MY SOUL

I don't believe in your God
It's just a waste of time
There ain't no contradiction
There is no doubt in my mind
I don't need your fanatics
To come knocking on my door
It's all a conspiracy
To keep the world at war

So just take me away
I don't need your love
So just leave me this way
It's my choice
It's my voice
I don't need religion

I don't believe in heaven
I don't believe in faith
I mock your crusifixion
That was a symbol of hate
I cannot live or breathe now
You're suffocating me
Lost in the confusion
When will I be free

Chorus

Say all your foolish prayers about me
I don't need help no help at all
Why can't you go on without me
Leave my soul alone

Chorus

Take me away
I don't need your love
I will stay this way
Forever
