Some Bad Religion lyrics...

Some Bad Religion lyrics...
But not just some random lyrics.
I took out two lyrics that have a nice message in them.
Especially for atheists. Wink
I'll put the messages in bold.
First off:

Sanity.

"Sanity"

There's a watch in my pocket and its hands are broken.
The face is blank but the gears are turning.
Confusion is a fundamental state of mind.
It doesn't really matter what I'm figuring out.
I'm guaranteed to wind up in a state of doubt
And sanity is a full-time job

In a world that is always changing,
And sanity is a state of mind
That you believe in, sanity.
There's a shadow on the wall where the paint is peeling.
My body's moving forward but my mind is reeling.
Depression is a fundamental state of mind.
It doesn't really matter how my day has turned out.
I always end up living in this world of doubt
And sanity is a full-time job

In a world that is always changing,
And sanity will make you strong
If you believe in sanity.

And sanity is a full-time job
In a world that is always changing,
And sanity is a state of mind
That you believe in, sanity.

Next:

1000 more fools.

I heard them say that the meek shall reign on earth,
Phantasmal myriads of sane bucolic birth.

I've seen the rapture in a starving baby's eyes,
Inchoate beatitude, the Lord of the Flies.
So what does it mean when your mind starts to stray?
Kaleidoscoping images of love on the way.
Brother you'd better get down on your knees and pay.
1,000 more fools are being born every fucking day.

They try to tell me that the lamb is on the way,
With microwave transmissions they bombard us every day.
The masses are obsequious, contented in their sleep.
The vortex of their minds ensconsed within the murky deep.
So what does it mean when your mind starts to stray?
Kaleidoscoping images of love on the way.
Brother you'd better get down on your knees and pay.
1,000 more fools are being born every fucking day.


This is why I love Greg Graffin: He has this unique ability of combining music with messages.
You guys know any other artists that spread messages throught their music?
dog·ma
n. pl. dog·mas or dog·ma·ta (-mə-tə)
1. A doctrine or a corpus of doctrines relating to matters such as morality and faith, set forth in an authoritative manner by a church.

An awful lot of rock music has some kind of message IMO. I know others will disagree but as a convert from dance to rock I think that rock music (and I include Indie in that) is generally more intelligent (lyrically) than most if not all other forms of popular music.
