Bad Religion Songtext

von Accept

As long as I remember -
I was left all by myself
When trouble crossed my way
I stood alone
My old man hit the bottle -
My mom was running scared
The old forgotten prayers turned
To stone

I¹m searching for identity -
I don¹t show who I am
The past has cast a shadow over me

Like a bad religion -
The only one I know
I never had no shelter - never had
A place to go
A bad religion - my life
Is make-believe
Bad religion - I¹m beggin¹ for relief

I tried to break the circle - to
Break the vicious spell
But the past is always heavy
On my mind
I¹m dancing with the devil -
A dangerous romance
A daring way to leave it all behind

I¹m searching for identity -
I don¹t know who I am
The past has cast a shadow over me

Like a bad religion -
The only one I know
I never had no shelter
Never had a place to go
A bad religion - my life
Is make-believe
Bad religion

I need someone to talk to -
Someone to understand
I need a friend to lend a helping hand
I¹m gonna pull myself together -
Shed this battered skin
I¹m ready for the challenge -
This loser¹s out to win

Like a bad religion -
The only one I know
I never had no shelter -
Never had a place to go
A bad religion - my life
Is make-believe
Bad religion - I¹m beggin¹ for
Relief - bad religion
