Skeleton Christ Lyrics
Unbound God's creation
Has grown into the sinner
Abandoned innocence
Impenitent transgressor
Escape mortality
They say your life can change
If you take God's hand
Embrace rebirth
Your cleansing's so divine
To be reborn in God's eyes
You'll never touch God's hand
You'll never taste God's breath
Because you'll never see the second coming
Life's too short to be focused on insanity
I've seen the ways of God
I'll take the devil any day
Hail Satan
Your faith has atrophied
And rots in hell's asylum
Despondence tears you down
A free-falling social stain
Escape atrocity
They say your life can change
If you take God's hand
Embrace rebirth
Your cleansing's so divine
To be reborn to God's lies
You'll never touch God's hand
You'll never taste God's breath
Because you'll never see the second coming
It's all a fuckin' mockery
No grasp upon reality
It's mind control for
Compulsory religion and the Skeleton Christ
You'll never touch God's hand
You'll never taste God's breath
Because you'll never see the second coming
I laugh at the abortion known as Christianity
I've seen the ways of God
I'll take the devil any day
Hail Satan
You'll never touch God's hand
You'll never taste God's breath
Because you'll never see the second coming
It's all a fuckin' mockery
No grasp upon reality
It's mind control for
Compulsory religion and the Skeleton Christ
Has grown into the sinner
Abandoned innocence
Impenitent transgressor
Escape mortality
They say your life can change
If you take God's hand
Embrace rebirth
Your cleansing's so divine
To be reborn in God's eyes
You'll never taste God's breath
Because you'll never see the second coming
Life's too short to be focused on insanity
I've seen the ways of God
I'll take the devil any day
Hail Satan
And rots in hell's asylum
Despondence tears you down
A free-falling social stain
Escape atrocity
They say your life can change
If you take God's hand
Embrace rebirth
Your cleansing's so divine
To be reborn to God's lies
You'll never taste God's breath
Because you'll never see the second coming
It's all a fuckin' mockery
No grasp upon reality
It's mind control for
Compulsory religion and the Skeleton Christ
You'll never taste God's breath
Because you'll never see the second coming
I laugh at the abortion known as Christianity
I've seen the ways of God
I'll take the devil any day
Hail Satan
You'll never taste God's breath
Because you'll never see the second coming
It's all a fuckin' mockery
No grasp upon reality
It's mind control for
Compulsory religion and the Skeleton Christ

The Skeleton Christ represents the empty promises made by Christians. Skeleton, bare, empty
I like the old seasons in the abyss slayer....this is just anti god bullshit. The band really has to stop letting Kerry King write all the lyrics
I agree man.....it gets so old. I don't like King that much anyway. Slayer kicks ass, but idk... I like the old stuff better too. It seems King is taking his anti-religion crap too far. It almost seems that he is trying to turn people away from Christianity. I think the guy is a little deluded. Tom is bad ass though.

Funfact about Tom Araya: He's a Catholic. Think about that next time you listen to him singing stuff like 'Hail Satan'.
Tom Araya was raised catholic. Massacre got this right, Jesus is the song of god, jesus is a skeloton rotting somewhere in the midde east, and the whole religion thing is just a scam to control people.
tom araya might be catholic but says he wont let his beliefs get in the way if someone comes up with a good song so its probably wirtten by kerry and/ or jeff. good song
Yeah once again Slayer manage to come up with one of the best outro riffs on a song EVER!
To do it twice on one album is amazing... Catatonic.. and this... have the most amazing outro riffs!
The band looks at religion, they don't believe in Satan any less than god. "ITS ALL A FUCKING MOCKERY" all religions are in Slayers eyes' but they seem to really hate Christianity...(Well King does anyway) That guy that really said HAIL SATAN is just as pathetic as these other religious fucks!
Propably Christ Illusion is one of the worst slayer albums. If someone says something like people does in commments to this song, that means they hate something without knowing anything about it. It's like you need to hate something and you chose religion. As michael jackso would say it's ignorant. You will say that you raed the bible (or shorter versions for dummies) but there are a lot of ideas created thanks to it. there are alot of good stuff in relgion but you se only holy wars and other things you need to see to hate it. Kerry King writes those songs to get antireligious fans. I raed the interview in which he was so proud that "slayer has so cool and brutal lyrics". The last album (world painted blood)is way better for me.The two older albums are just attempt to show they are still brutal and anti everything.
Same old Kerry King anti christian lyrics - music kicks ass but lyrics are very tired. Hey Kerry if you want to show off how big your balls are go after Mohammed ...yeah, I didn't think so
