To Live Like This
Just look at you, who do you think you are To flaunt our laws with your rash ways To mock our rules with disregard Your presence here is poison in our veins Your human traits sour our belief Your arrogance should be your shame In your Spanish leather boots, silver buttons on your vest Gold embroidery down your britches, diamond broach upon your chest We move on the devil's darkest You shun your forms of godliness What you parade among the living We harbor sullen world of death Just look at me, well I say look at you You hog these walls like half-starved rats A filthy __ vermin crew Where is it written, who said to live like this Show me the face of such a fool Who trade this gift for shit and piss What's to fear on hallowed ground SongtexteCold stone angels bound to good A crucifix is nothing more, just a dead man on two bits of wood Your self-imposed archaic ways are simply lies to bind your will Above this wreched trip to live in shine forms of light that cannot kill chorus Trust in me, there is no need If you want to live like this and not believe The night holds more than darkness and the stars Don't fear the world out there because of who you are So come with me and you will see there is no need to live like this No need You act so bold as if you have the right To challenge us, this ancient ___ one you are to this cursed life I bring you proof, you've seen it with your eyes I've danced within the church of God, seen opera sung and still survived From one who drank his mother's blood, a quest to be some harlequin I see the words dry in your mouth, it seems your hold is wearing thin Beware the smoonth-tongued libertine, he'll share with you his grand demise His logic crumbling like a corpse, no god amongst who rules your lies chorus Trust in me, there is no need For anyone to live like this and not believe The night holds more than darkness and the stars Don't fear the world out there because of who you are So come with me and you will see there is no need to live like this No need Aus Songtexte Mania
