Judas and My Dad

The Bible says that Judas went to hell

Because he was remorseful and killed himself

Let me say that again

I hope you let it sink in

He was remorseful, filled with guilt

Yet the Bible says he was sent to hell

Just because he killed himself


And that's why I take it all

With a very small grain of salt

My very own father committed suicide

So in the Bible I can't confide

It makes me angry what it says

Because I swear my daddy did his best

Before he pondered then took his life

It's the apathy that I despise


If there is a God out there

And he decides that hell is fair

For those who decide

To take their own life

Then I want nothing to do with him

Because suicide is not a sin

And it boils my blood when I hear people say

My dad went to hell, he wasn't saved


They say that God is love and mercy

They obviously haven't experienced his side of fury

He gave us lives that some of us would rather lose

And if heaven is suicide free, then hell I'll choose

Forget you and your dismissive beliefs

I'm a Christian but solace through the Bible I don't receive
