If It Bleeds

Gathered here tonight with blessings from the gods
Worship those who are within the community of the speaking truth

All that is said, all that is done, within the silent law
Strange visions, past of violence, slow down and fade away
A force to be reckoned and laws to obey
Ritual of isolation when flesh will be clay

If it bleeds, if it bleeds

They are the ones who betrayed our own beliefs and act as charlatans of their own demise

Chaotic structure within the balance of the dying gods
This world will see that they are next, the next to be
One in the chamber, conquest of power from the dying gods
No one to trust, no one to blame, for them to see, paying the price of immortality

If it bleeds, stirring of paranoia
If it bleeds, values of antisocial
If it bleeds, morals of hollow idols
If it bleeds, we're gonna kill it

"I believe in no God, no invisible man in the sky. But there is something more powerful than each of us, a combination of our efforts, a Great Chain of industry that unites us. But it is only when we struggle in our own interest that the chain pulls society in the right direction. The chain is too powerful and too mysterious for any government to guide. Any man who tells you different either has his hand in your pocket, or a pistol to your neck."
