A Gift from the Christians by Shroud of Despondency. Lyrics inspired by Carl Panzram

lyrics

I am a mightier animal!
Since birth a human animal
Learned so much in the hands of the Christians
How to pretend Christ was compatible
With what naturally became my mission
Since birth a human animal
Learned so much about how to disguise
How to lie where hate was practical
Felt their hypocrisy slowly giving rise
To a mightier animal
Since birth a human animal
Learned so much in the hands of the Christians
How to pretend Christ was compatible
With what naturally became my mission
Since birth a human animal
Learned so much about how to disguise
How to lie where hate was practical
Felt their hypocrisy slowly giving rise
To a mightier animal
It took the paint shop to make me see the love of Jesus
The salt in my wounds from the straps of old men
It took them to show me what to do with my penis
I love him so damn much I'd crucify him all over again
I'd crucify him all over again
Consuming-the thoughts of revenge
Grooming me to be my own beast
Abusing-so I comprehend
Forming the cloak of hypocrisy
Now I tell them how much I love Christ
They look into the whites of my eyes
They give me freedom, call me pure as a lily
Now before I murder I make sure to sodomize
Now I tell them how much I love Christ
They look into the whites of my eyes
They give me freedom, call me pure as a lily
Now before I murder I make sure to sodomize
I make sure to sodomize
