As Gods As Demons

from Buried Secrets & Old Lies by ThornBrain

/

lyrics

They're more alike than we think
They're more alike than we'd like
They see themselves

The gods were born with red right hands
So the demons stripped their skin
The demons whipped their tails about
So the gods grew whips akin

As gods as demons
We will do too
In gods in demons we see you

The gods called forth the rain and flood
The demons bathed and drank their fill
The demons drowned the weak
The gods pulled their bodies out
Both cackled and cracked their will

His fetid sack would spill its usual about
While back in his mind the thoughts repeated
Can you possibly think you're in the right
Do they ever get the feeling they're being cheated
Ever get the feeling you're being cheated
We see ourselves

Buried Secrets had a thought
Why it's so hard to tell apart
Those who claim to speak divine
And those who've long sold their heart

As gods as demons
We will do too
In gods in demons we see you

Ever get the feeling you're being cheated
We see ourselves
I can't breathe in here
I can't think in here
The skeleton is waiting

Old Lies had a thought
As his fetid sack began to tire
Old Lies' final thought
Last minute thought of a man on fire
