lyrics

Only the dead have seen the end of war. How lucky for leaders
soldiers that think don't have the power past a pour of a poison
reflecting the pool from within. From the drink of a void and it takes us.
Reel it in. Be so cool to erase us. From within. Take a drink. Let it sit.
Don't stop to think. This is it. No more fighting, this is the last time.
The war to end all wars. This motherfucking world is mine.
The gold. The valor. The whores. Your mind. I am man. I want a family.
No, I want a colony. I want a fucking cult to follow me. No outsiders to tolerate.
For country, for god. Whatever I nominate. I don't know what love is.
I'd take it. I'd sell it. I am man and I would break it.
History repeats for some fucker in the sky above..? For me, I don't give a shit.
This is it. No more fighting. This is the last time.
The war to end all wars. This motherfucking world is mine.
The gold. The valor. The whores. Your mind.
I am man. I want to have everything I can.
And feel nothing.
Yes, I want to feel nothing.
Let it in. That's where you come in.

Can't make this shit up. We corrupt the fountain but want to drink from the cup.
I'm only human and I can never have enough.
Can't make this shit up. We corrupt the fountain but want to drink from the cup.
I'm only human and I can never have enough.

It's me now. I've taken over. Don't fight it, I'll keep you sober.
You let me in so I could maneuver your soul like you sold it.
Don't look at me as a leech, that's you. You said it yourself you know that's true.
You didn't want to preach, I know and that's cool.
This place is a joke, I get it. Fast food. Your mind is just a blip and it's ending.
A blink in the flux that is life and it's nice that someone fights with pretending
it's okay, at the edge of a knife. Your world will stay. Life will see every day.
Love will not ever fade. Truth is never betrayed. But your people will expire.
Like every empire is blighted routinely by fire from your own match.
I would say you never learn but you do that.
You evolved intellectually but never flourished.
Divided by hate, forever malnourished. You were right. It's too late.
All I see is one fate. It's no big loss that you're no longer with us.
Gone within me, no eternal love or gorgeous vistas. What did you do for
the world besides share some words, seeking love? That didn't change shit
he was just treading blood. Now I've been treading his, coming in phases.
I am the master of all his positive changes. Selfish, only helped himself. Faceless.
Just like me perhaps, maybe I'm ancient. I go from place to place. I am painless.
This is it. The war to end all wars. You had so many chances to save this.
You evolved with information, but just learned to be tasteless. Learned to want.
It's not innate, you learned to be baseless.
Only by interceding can I make this right.
I will relieve my host by the end of the night.

Can't make this shit up. You corrupt the fountain but want to drink from the cup.
You're only human and I can never have enough.
Can't make this shit up. You corrupt the fountain but want to drink from the cup.
You're only human and I can never have enough.
Can't make this shit up. We corrupt the fountain but want to drink from the cup.
I'm only human and I can never have enough.
