Cult Leader

There's enough people that we hate

that I think we should build a temple

I guess I'll never relate to the people that I'm supposed to resemble

There's an empty cofifn at a wake carved with the words

"Death to all rebels"

A purgatory's an empty gate

when you project love the right love will

And the only way to feel peace

is to make your brothers hurt like hell

Just make sure you solute your masters

'Cause they'll probably hurt as well

And if they don't, I'm sure you'll be able to tell

'cause you'll be the one feeling the crashing waves

and feeling the swell

And the apple never falls far from the tree

and darling I guess we were the apples that fell right into the weeds

We see all these blind sheep taking their turn at the slaughter

as they devor our existance under the branches of our father

Your skin is worn, my skin is torn

I think we should build a house so we have something to burn

Your skin is worn, and my skin is torn

I think we should build a house so we have something to burn

'Cause I trusted my mind to speak for my heart

And I can see those bags under your eyes

and the sun is a reminder that we're not afraid to die

With rays burning flesh and our shoulders turning red

The last hope we had was dragged in the streets by a cigarette

Love is only love if it knows no death!

Father I promise you that I will not fall asleep

until someone rips out your tongue, until you cannot speak

Father I promise you that I will not fall asleep

until someone gouges out your eyes, until you cannot see

This happy day will never end

This happy day will never end

This happy day will never end

When all we do is sleep

A promise of a victory march is all it took to let these demons go

A promise of a victory march is all it took to let my heart beat again

A promise of a victory march is all it took to let these demons go

A promise of a victory march is all it took to let these demons in

And our dignity has no passion but at least it understands

that if we want to build a mansion

we need to cut off our childrens hands

and devour every asset they have

until they've fallen to death

'Cause regrets the only way to smile in this world that we've upset

When we're just building our financial tower

forgetting that some day we'll live under the flowers

And I know we tried to get across this moat

tried to build a bridge and watch it turn into a boat

And maybe we can't climb over the crashing waves

but at least we can endure them, at least we can try

'Cause if I know one thing, I can tell you everytime you step on a butterfly the consequence is still knowing you'll never die
