Gods And Monsters

They say that when you're dead
people miss you more,
but that's not true
when you're dead at home.

Speak your lines my friend.
Rolling the reel.
Eat up your light my friend,
it's your last meal.

When you're living in a world of gods and monsters.
When you're living in a world of gods and monsters.
Now you look like a monster,
when you once were a god.

They say if you're undead
you can live forever.
The carrion of man
is the price.

You've danced with the gods I see,
but now you're the beast.
You know your share of zombies my friend
and you've seen them feast.

When you're living in a world of gods and monsters.
When you're living in a world of gods and monsters.
Now you look like a monster,
when you once were a god.

They say that the flesh
is weaker than the soul.
How did it become
your life?

They say that your power
once was infinite.
No need now for corruption
or vice.

Lost your lines my friend?
Lost all the girls?
Lost all the light and then
just fell off the world.

It was only a scene for gods and monsters.
It was just another game for gods and monsters.
Now you look like a monster,
when you once were a god.

When you once were a monster.

When you once were a god.
