your salvation, not mine

no i don't search for your kind of salvation
the path you follow sheds no light for me
i won't subject myself to your sad manipulation
i tend to doubt things that lack tangibility
you do what you need to, to get through the day
living in fear of an infraction of faith
surrounded by falsified versions of dismay
so that those who obey can feel safe
don't riddle me with tales of speculation and doubt
i was swallowed whole by the lies they sold
you've convinced yourselves that its all figured out
that there's potential for everyone to fit the mold
but what of the vast majority who don't share your opinions
can't they choose their own views for themselves
would you have a world filled with mindless minions
who leave their point of views high on a shelf?
