Pilgrim Lyrics
From the womb, to the tomb
An eternal struggle for the holy truth
We are not the first, nor shall we be the last
We shall be followed by thousands more
Study the scriptures - Intensify the faith
The works of men much greater than you or I
From the cradle to the grave
Thousands of immortal souls just waiting to be saved!
Pilgrim man - What are you searching for?
Believe the tales when everything else fails
Pilgrim man - Deep in your heart you know
Your faith is already bought and sold
All my life I served the cross
Always believing my God was a just one
I maimed for you - I killed for you
But looking back at my life
I just don't know anymore...
An eternal struggle for the holy truth
We are not the first, nor shall we be the last
We shall be followed by thousands more
Study the scriptures - Intensify the faith
The works of men much greater than you or I
From the cradle to the grave
Thousands of immortal souls just waiting to be saved!
Believe the tales when everything else fails
Pilgrim man - Deep in your heart you know
Your faith is already bought and sold
Always believing my God was a just one
I maimed for you - I killed for you
But looking back at my life
I just don't know anymore...

Awesome song, no need to serve some non-existant god, instead, serve yourself.
It's just a song Mike wrote, questioning his faith. but ditto the above post, cuz it gets straight to the point.
the song also pays tribute to Blue Oyster Cult. the riff they play for the chorus of this song is the same as the one from BOC's song astronomy
