about

There are certain Christian believers who believe everything that lives (whether it’s a fetus) must be kept alive no matter what because it’s stated in their holy book. With this view, reasons why people use the possibility abortion or euthanasia are totally ignored. We can’t see why they’re so eager to blindly follow pages written in a time long gone. The way of life and ethics nowadays cannot be compared to that time. It’s unnecessary to let someone suffer when it’s very easy and more humane to stop the suffering.

lyrics

Something’s growing inside you –A result of a violent night
Such a dirty deed of breaking in to you

Gotta get away
From the weight inside my head
It’s not murder
I need my life
No murder
It’s my life

The cancer keeps spreading- the doctor just said
All those months waiting in bed
The choice of no more pain – was so easily made
How much more do you think
Can a man take?

Gotta get away
There’s nothing left for me
It’s not murder
Don’t have a life
No murder
It’s my life

So You think you know what’s best for them,
Swallowing their pain- because pages decide it’s a sin
Pray on your cruel dogmas
You will face hell when ignored
A nice lesson for those boys of yours

You can’t see it clear now
‘cause the choices that you make
Are only based on ancient fucking rules
I wish you saw it clear now
That the practice that you preach
Is nothing but a lie

So You think you know what’s best for them,
Swallowing their pain- because pages decide it’s a sin
Pray on your cruel dogmas
You will face hell when ignored
A nice lesson for those boys of yours
