Forgive Us by Travis Hagen

I was sitting here, listening to Modest Mouse "The World At Large" and started thinking about one of the greatest quotes I've heard: "Religion is the Opium of the People." -- Karl Marx
I also felt that I'm beginning to lose my touch with the artistic world, thus this came out of my head.

Forgive Us
by Travis Hagen
Opium.
That's all I'm good for.
They thought and they prayed,
I'm what they got.
Opium.
Karl Marx said it first.
They took him for granted.
But he was right.
Religion.
That's what I am.
Only a sad opiate for the masses.
Forgive me.
Religion.
I didn't want this.
It was your unforgiving kind,
your People that did this.
Opium. Religion.
Forgive us, People.
We know not what we hath done;
Forgive us.

The "opium" of religion is not just for the people, but for the government as well.Posted 04-16-2009 at 02:34 AM by wingless
