Truth for a lie

You know that men love darkness
Rather than light
Because their deeds are evil

They have the truth in front
They look without and within
They harden their hearts
Given over to sin

We manufacture our perception of truth
Always taking the easy way
Every day we're drifting farther from god
Exchanging truth for a lie

I'll take a little of this
And a little of that
"whatever feels right"
Is what i always say

Ignore the voice inside me
Happiness is my right
Why resist our nature?

We manufacture our perception of truth
Always taking the easy way out
Every day we travel farther from god
Trading truth for a lie

Even a dog knows his master
But you don't know your own
Mistake creation for creator
Give up the meat for a bone

The evil we have
Is not enough for you
To satisfy your lust
You must invent some new

To you the knowledge of god
Is something lacking in worth
So he has given you up
Depravity for your mirth

We manufacture our perception of truth
Always taking the easy way out
Every day we journey farther from god
Forsaking truth for a lie

Be sure you check to see
Who god has revealed himself to be
Not who you'd like him to be
Or who you think he should be
