Wallow in the winter of it Discover what you truly covet Underneath the floor, above it You slither and I'll get a chance How could you forget about it? Did you think you could minimize? This is the age of consent You'll get a day in this life Before I kill your f*****g light Burn open your atmosphere Burn up in your atmosphere Desecrate your temples Only I'll end the name I've made Don't look for crows, they're scattered Prepare for judgment day We are killed gods The gates are falling down Can I find a way to get there? Bury your head in the ground When you falsify for your fair share Which god is god plus negative one? It's everybody's deaths but they have only one Will you come testify in the court of myopic opinion? Or will you settle for oblivion? We are killed gods (We) We make this world worth saving (are) Are you prepared to believe? (killed) Kill everything that kills you (gods) Live long and die for me You write, [?] In the middle of a novelist pact They will never obey All these years spent hiding all the bodies I could never be sure but I remember the graves We are killed gods (We) We make this world worth saving (are) Are you prepared to believe? (killed) Kill everything that kills you (gods) Live long and die for me Live long and die for me Live long and die for me
