Halo

So lost in your righteousness
You fail to contain the violence.
The demons in this world are ones you create
With intolerance, estrangement… blind hate.

Maybe your path's the one leading to heaven,
You'll attain eternal peace, surrounded by angels.
Does that give you the right to 
Inflict wounds, trample on faith?

Black and white, good and evil,
That's where it all goes wrong.
Ever thought to pause and think for yourself
If those old fairy tales are worth the blood shed?

I'm sure it's warm and comforting for you
I'm glad you've found a way to solace.
Just, please, don't
Drag me there with you.
