burn

words and music by Scrand

Stephen was his name

and it was such a shame

but nothing could be helped

and nothing could be changed

didn't go to church

but still did all the work

he was a good man

they didn't understand

they were breathing on his phone

trying to break him like a bone

broken like his home

never squashed a bug

but he always acted smug

a though he didn't do a sin

he still didn't have a friend

money to the poor

and when they asked for more

he gave them

everything

but they wouldn't let alone

cause the didn't like his tone

so they didn't heed his moans

when they made his blood flow

and he didn't know where he would go

but they were sure that he would burn

David's request

What is your song idea?

An atheist who lives a completely virtuous life and gets killed for it by religious people who don't appreciate the atheist raising the moral bar on them without the aid of their god.
