    This is the one hundred sixty-sixth installment in the Songs of Sacrilege series. This is a series that I would like readers to help me with. If you know of a song that is irreverent towards religion, makes fun of religion, pokes fun at sincerely held religious beliefs, or challenges the firmly held religious beliefs of others, please send me an email.

    Today’s Songs of Sacrilege is Cry for the Moon by Epica.

    Lyrics

    Follow your common sense
    You cannot hide yourself
    Behind a fairytale forever and ever
    Only by revealing the whole truth can we disclose
    The soul of this sick bulwark forever and ever
    Forever and ever

    Indoctrinated minds so very often
    Contain sick thoughts
    And commit most of the evil they preach against

    Don’t try to convince me with messengers from God
    You accuse us of sins committed by yourselves
    It’s easy to condemn without looking in the mirror
    Behind the scenes opens reality

    Eternal silence cries out for justice
    Forgiveness is not for sale
    Nor is the will to forget

    Virginity has been stolen at very young ages
    And the extinguisher loses it’s immunity
    Morbid abuse of power in the garden of eden
    Where the apple gets a youthful face

    Eternal silence cries out for justice
    Forgiveness is not for sale
    Nor is the will to forget

    You can’t go on hiding yourself
    Behind old fashioned fairytales
    And keep washing your hands in innocence
