9. Devour (3:34)
"Yeas I can do miracles!"
Solo: Kragen
One chance to do this
One chance to get it right
One chance to show the world
The monsters inside
They'll hear me
They'll see me
Believe me
And eat their precious...
Pride, swallowed like broken glass
Lies fed to a hollow mass
One chance to kill bliss
One chance to darken light
One chance to mold the world
To this monster inside
They'll fear me
They'll hate me
Deceive me
And eat their precious...
Pride, swallowed like broken glass
Lies fed to a hollow mass
Devour
Born to break the unbroken
Devour
Speak the lies unspoken
Devour
Hopes and dreams to unburden
Devour
Hearts and minds of lesser men
"Yes, I can do miracles! No matter
what you think. Yes, I can heal the sick
and cure cancer! You write it down.
You can call me an egomaniac or a
megalomaniac or whatever you wish,
with a messianic complex. I don't have
any complex, honey. I happen to know
I'm the messiah!"
-Reverend Jim Jones
Solo: Lee
Solo: Kragen
Pride, swallowed like broken glass
Lies fed to a hollow mass
Devour
Born to break the unbroken
Devour
Speak the lies unspoken
Devour
Hopes and dreams to unburden
Devour
Hearts and minds
Break their spines
The hearts and minds of lesser men
Solo: Kragen
One chance to do this
One chance to get it right
One chance to show the world
The monsters inside
They'll hear me
They'll see me
Believe me
And eat their precious...
Pride, swallowed like broken glass
Lies fed to a hollow mass
One chance to kill bliss
One chance to darken light
One chance to mold the world
To this monster inside
They'll fear me
They'll hate me
Deceive me
And eat their precious...
Pride, swallowed like broken glass
Lies fed to a hollow mass
Devour
Born to break the unbroken
Devour
Speak the lies unspoken
