In this house there’s no room for debate
No place for the crooked who can’t be made straight
Who we are is not wrong just ‘cause you can’t relate
Your ‘loving the sinner’ still feels like hate
Look, your writings and traditions have always been viewed
In light of reason and experience - but of only a few
Why don’t we open it up? What have you got to lose?
Can your superiority complex not handle the truth?
I’m standing up for who I believe in
Getting knocked back, say I’m acting the heathen
Life isn’t so black and white
Try keeping yourself right
I’m standing up for who I believe in
You can’t fire me I’m leaving, leaving
I’m the bad boy stumbling out to smoke
I stopped caring what you think of me long ago
I can’t go back to act in your performative show
I’ve got hundreds of suits but no place to go
I’m standing up for who I believe in
Getting knocked back, say I’m acting the heathen
Life isn’t so black and white
Try keeping yourself right
I’m standing up for who I believe in
You can’t fire me I’m leaving, leaving
You can’t fire me I’m leaving
Tear it all down
Tear it down and start again
Tear it all down, Tear it down
Tear it down and start again
I’m standing up for who I believe in
Getting knocked back, say I’m acting the heathen
Life isn’t so black and white
Try keeping yourself right
I’m standing up for who I believe in
You can’t fire me I’m leaving
