Worthy Host

I was kept in the dark about the true nature of life and how it ends

How the soul will find another worthy host to make amends

I lead them all into the woods

I hold their hands as we climb the mud

I say the words and try to stop the screams

The end will always justify the means

And as I walk away, the ground beneath me falls

Dragged deeper into the ground

And as you take your place, a trophy on the walls

The gate keeper moves to the sound

The great culling of the weak

The only justice I seek

And the thought of the bodies just follows me around

Wonder what they look like, rotting in the ground

And when the police come by, I'll cry just like I rehearsed

Then go back to feeling nothing, just the unrelenting thirst

And the thought of the bodies just follows me around

Wonder what they look like, rotting in the ground

And when the police come by, I'll cry just like I rehearsed

Then go back to feeling nothing, just the unrelenting thirst
