Broken Cross Lyrics

Lyric discussion by despondent 

Cover art for Broken Cross lyrics by Architects

This song is easy to interpret:

"God only knows why we were born to burn" "Looking down on us, all the children that you despise" "A bullet in the neck doesn't feel much like love" "A message of rejection sent from above" "I'll be in h*ll with the misunderstood" "The sons and daughters that you wished to forget" "A f***ing tyrant in a hollow crown"

And, of course:

"One thing's for sure, He doesn't fucking love us"

It's so obvious I find it ridiculous that people would claim otherwise. But of course, even with a song this obviously anti-religion, people will stupidly claim that it's not anti-religious. Funny how that works. A lyric could say "God does not exist" and some religious fool who can't deal with reality would claim it was expressing God's reality and love.
