Live

When performed during the Self Destruct warm up shows in 1994, the song was played very similar to the album version. The only noticeable difference is the much louder guitars to the point where the famous The Downward Spiral motif in the chorus can be heard clearly. The way it was played in 1994 is similar to how it is played 2007.

Lyrics

    He sewed his eyes shut because he is afraid to see
    He tries to tell me what I put inside of me
    He’s got the answers to ease my curiosity
    He dreamed a god up and called it Christianity
    
    Your god is dead and no one cares
    If there is a Hell I will see you there
    
    He flexed his muscles to keep his flock of sheep in line
    He made a virus that would kill off all the swine
    His perfect kingdom of killing, suffering and pain
    Demands devotion atrocities done in his name
    
    Your god is dead and no one cares
    Drowning in his own hypocrisy
    And if there is a Hell I will see you there
    Burning with your god in humility
    Will you die for this?
