Elements of creation - sinew knit with sinew by the potters hand Knit within the womb the one and only breath of life into hopeless man Humanity will not fit into the box of good intentions Nothing of any value will come form man if left to his devices We've been handed failure - the error is learned Philosophy of culture - the truth obscured Our spirit is ruptured - conscience burned World held in bondage - inherently depraved Hearts self deception - make broad his ways Legitimize temptation - ruin his grace Entrenched within our lies - refuge of false doctrine violently forced our way to hell Exception to the rule everyone is an exception no one follows the rules Half beast and half devil - brutish blind and dumb compelled by your own lust No death to sin it manipulates your members as we return to dust World held in bondage - inherently depraved Hearts self deception - make broad his ways Legitimize temptation - ruin his grace Many who have died in sin lived with a conviction loved the world and hated God Exception to the rule everyone is an exception no one follows the rules Interpret through vain philosophy it's a tragedy Erroneous ritual done religiously - this is nothing Ultimate defective mans depravity pious impiety The heart is deceptive But whom does it deceive? Only the one who feels its thump In the chest in which it beats The heart is deceitful And subservient to lust It will twist anything Just to get what it wants
