I can’t believe the way that you loved us
I can’t believe you caused so much pain
You deceive, you thieve in the name of your religion
You fill our eyes and they turn to rain
We needed a saviour and we got you
You can kill us with kindness that never rings true
We keep our mouth shut and just play dumb
Absolution awaits but the Kingdom has gone
The wages of sinners keep you praying for more
He’s the man with the word and we’ve heard it before
Out on the street, you deny what you’ve done
But there’s lies on your lips and lies on your tongue
(Under Suspicion) Dirty minds with angel looks
(Under Suspicion) The preacher hides behind his book
Inside there’s still growing without people knowing
There’s a child of a man who’s dead to the world
Who in their right mind finds pleasure in pain
If God is a witness he should drown in his shame
You can swear on the bible - the little black book
The truth will out ‘bout the lives you took
Needed a saviour and we got you
You can kill us with kindness that never rings true
We keep our mouth shut and just play dumb
Absolution awaits but heaven has gone
Looking at you with a gun in your hand
You’re the devil’s son - not a paradise man
The nine-o-nine that departed the scene
Just something to read about in sick magazines
(Under Suspicion) Angel looks with dirty minds
(Under Suspicion) If God is love then love is blind
Inside there’s still growing without people knowing
There’s a child of a man who’s dead to the world
Staring into the paper cup - your reflection is looking up
(Under Suspicion) I can’t believe the way that you loved us
(Under Suspicion) I can’t believe you caused so much pain
(Under Suspicion) You deceive, You thieve in the name of your religion
(Under Suspicion) You fill our eyes and they turn to rain
(Under Suspicion) Dirty minds with angel looks
(Under Suspicion) The preacher hides behind his books
(Under Suspicion) Inside there’s still growing without people knowing
(Under Suspicion) There’s a child of a man who’s dead to the world
