So many questions in my soul, so many answers that I need to know.
Is there a god, a trinity, is he real, and what does he want from me?
Is there life after death, does it all just stop with our dying breath?
Are there rules to guide my head, does anything really matter when we're dead?
Then one day I was reading in the bible.
I came across a passage that meant so much to me.
The way it made me feel was truly divine.
I had seen the truth and it had set me free.
Now I'm a Christian Warrior, living life free from sin.
A Christian Warrior, righteousness will always win.
A Christian Warrior, a champion for Jesus Christ.
A Christian Warrior, saved because he paid the price.
Ever so slowly my senses returned,
and I saw straight through all that crap I had learned.
It's bullshit, it's bullshit, and I have bought the dream.
It's bullshit, it's bullshit, and I have been deceived.
I gave them all I had and they gave me nothing.
How could I have been so blind?
I'm a young man fresh out of school, filled full of knowledge, I am nobody's fool.
Looking for a chance to show my skill, give me a mountain and I'll turn it into a hill.
I'm going to climb the ladder straight to the top, when I get started I'm never going to stop.
Meet any challenge reach any goal, set me loose I'm ready to roll.
Then one day I finally got my wish.
A cool young firm offered me it all.
A desk and an office and a window on the world.
You know damn well I was ready to answer the call.
Now I'm a Company Man, working as hard as I can.
A Company Man, making real the master plan.
A Company Man, I'm loyal and I'm here to stay.
A Company Man, I will run this place some day.
Years pass and I am still stuck in this dead end.
Promises were broken by those I thought were friends.
It's bullshit, it's bullshit, and I have bought the dream.
It's bullshit, it's bullshit, and I have been deceived.
Next time I do it my way, with my beliefs, and my goals,
and my dreams, no one controls me but me.
I see it all so clear and clean, just one goal - to build my dream.
And everyone wants to help me along, to sell me something that makes me strong.
I need this and I need that and I need someone to show me where it's at.
One more step, one more try, one more change and I'll be ready to fly.
Then one day I finally found the answer.
The final piece to make my dreams come true.
Believing in myself and myself only.
I have seen the truth and I'll tell it all to you.
Now I'm the New God, I'll tell you what you need to hear.
I'm the New God, all your pain will disappear.
I'm the New God, it will all make sense once more.
I'm the New God, here's the key, unlock the door.
And as I told them of all that I saw,
it all came apart like a house made of straw.
It's bullshit, it's bullshit, and I have bought the dream.
It's bullshit, it's bullshit, and I have been deceived.
I gave it all I had and ended up with nothing.
Every time I dream my dream turns to shit.
