What if the creator
Was the bad guy?
What if there was another
God on the outside?
Unknowable and unknown
To every boy and girl
What if it were Satan
That really created this world?

They call him the Demiurge
They call him Yahweh and Baal
They say that the material world
Is really the one and only hell

Is this Gnosis?
Or hypnosis

What if the serpent
In the garden was trying
To save us from a god
That was conniving and lying
They say the creator
Of this world is the bad guy
That trapped our spirits
With our soul deep inside

They call him the Demiurge
They call him Yahweh and Baal
They say that the material world
Is really the one and only hell

Is this Gnosis?
Or hypnosis

They say Cain was good
And his lineage is not mortally bound
They say we misunderstood
The words long ago written down
Lucifer was sent to save us
By the great and unknowable god
The creator god has enslaved us
And tricked the world with his fraud

They call him the Demiurge
They call him Yahweh and Baal
They say that the material world
Is really the one and only hell

Is this Gnosis?
Or hypnosis

So much confusion
Too many voices
Is it all just an illusion?
Too many choices
