Placate the Masses - Dead Gods Lyrics

Pray a prayer and sing a song
To the almighty created
Instead of the Creator
In whose image we are made
Buy the lie
It can satisfy
Your every single need
Until it runs out and leaves you empty again

Taken captive by our masters that have
Never been alive
Chain ourselves on every word
They've never spoken

Run to those gods you plug in the wall
Worship those gods you watch on a screen

Love had died from just one bite
To know both good and evil
Fulfillment turned its eyes
To all that it could see
For ourselves and no one else
We gather what we can
Becoming a god unto ourselves

Serving ourselves
By taking from another
Gathering what
We love to haul away
In our distant
Apathetic lives
Comfortable in the worship of ourselves

I am the first and the last
There is no other God
Who is like me
Let him step forward and prove to you his power.
Let him do what I have done since ancient times,
When I established a people and explained its future

Who but a fool would make his own god
An idol that cannot help him one bit

Run to those gods you roll up and smoke
Worship those gods you pump in your veins
Drink in your gods to the very last drop
But as for me, I will serve the Lord

Infinite and never failing
Is what we're to cling to
Never to be left without
Decide to make the love of God all you need
And be fulfilled in life abundantly

No one can break
No one can break your heart
When your satisfaction
Is found in Him alone
Worth and healing
Will come back to you
Reversing the damage done by dead gods

Run to those gods you put in the bank
Worship those gods you put on a shelf
Fill your house with all the gods you can get
But as for me, I will serve the Lord
