Lyrics
Played the game, yes I played it well.
Engaged in life's experiences, played a role effectively.
Sang hallelujah, had a story to tell.
Celebrated or praised with enthusiasm, had a personal narrative.
Went to church, sometimes twice a week.
Attended religious gatherings frequently.
Could quote the scripture and man could I preach.
Memorized and could recite religious texts, proficient in preaching.
Fooled myself, thought I was smart.
Deceived oneself, believed in personal intelligence.
Religious void filled my heart.
Felt a spiritual emptiness despite religious involvement.
A prideful look was my claim to fame but I lived in the hall of shame.
Exhibited pride, but lived with a sense of disgrace.
Chorus:
Chorus: Intro to the theme of the darkest void.
Darkest Void, Darkest.
Reiteration of the concept of the darkest void.
Can't you see the pain in my eyes.
Expressing visible pain in the eyes.
The end must come to all the lies.
Acknowledgment that falsehoods must come to an end.
My mind was like the darkest void.
Mind is in a state of profound emptiness and darkness.
Religious lies must be destroyed.
Emphasizes the necessity of dismantling religious lies.
