Spirit Shrine Lyrics - Bad Religion

shed a tear for the criminal, give him something to believe 

light a fire for the miserable, give the darkness some meaning 

closed wounds harbor pestilence, when you lick them from within 

charity has a redolence chastity cannot rescind 

spirit shine, it's a sign 

of a tortured mind (troubled mind) 

spirit shine all the time 

can render you blind 

you can take it all to heart or throw it all away 

You can call it just a lark or live your life that way 

you can give until you're dry and sucked of all your gleam 

you can fake another cry and compromise your dream 

cling tight to the parable - let it dominate your life 

create a God who's infallible - give your leader some respite
