If I Were Better

Who are your gods?

Who do they tell you to be?

Have they given you peace?

Or do they boss you to your knees?

Will you suffer them?

Serve willingly?

And let them dominate

Your reality?

Go ahead and delete my mind

Then reprogram me, subdued and refined

Grateful to be dominated by

Fevered egos venerated

Maybe I could face the terror

If only I were better

Where were your gods

When you were sick and alone?

Did you blaspheme their names?

Or has your love only grown?

Go ahead and delete my mind

Then reprogram me, subdued and refined

Grateful to be dominated by

Fevered egos venerated

Maybe I could face the terror

If only I were better

Make me numb, so I'll succumb

To all the changes coming

It won't hurt if you convert

Obey the beast you've summoned

It won't hurt

It won't hurt

It won't hurt

It won't hurt

Go ahead and delete my mind

Then reprogram me, subdued and refined

Grateful to be dominated by

Fevered egos venerated

Maybe I could face the terror

If only I were better
