["Yours is a house of desolation! The home of the lizard and the spider! Serpents! Brood of vipers! How can any of you escape
damnation?"]
The Kingdom of Heaven you shut in man's face
and you won't go in, since you only act like you're chaste
Converting people away from the Lord
to be like yourself while their needs are ignored
The outside of the cup and the dish are washed clean
While inside they are full of self-indulgence and greed
White washed tomb
["You are like whited sepulchres, all clean and
fair without, but within full of dead men's bones and all
corruption!"]
You serve a religion that can only condemn
when you follow the traditions of men
Following details like the tithe you should give
while what's important; justice, mercy, and faith are not lived
The outside of the cup and the dish are washed clean
While inside they are full of self-indulgence and greed
White washed tomb
The outside of the cup and the dish are washed clean
While inside they are full of self-indulgence and greed
White washed tomb
On the outside you appear to people as righteous
but inside you lives hypocrisy and all wickedness
You have claimed to learn from past history
and yet you still seek to kill the godly
The outside of the cup and the dish are washed clean
While inside they are full of self-indulgence and greed
White washed tomb
The outside of the cup and the dish are washed clean
While inside they are full of self-indulgence and greed
White washed tomb
Just like a tree that doesn't bear fruit
is the Word of God that doesn't take root
Thrown into fire is a fruitless tree
just like man for his sanctimony
