Heathens - Music Box Mania

She bargains with the world So everything she wants will come to her With no greed inside her mind She knows what she deserves We fell from sky with grace And landed in her soft and warm embrace She gave her love, her gift of life So we could live with her That is why we live like heathens Stealing from the trees of Eden Living in the arms of freedom And everything we touch is evil That is why we live like heathens The stone, the dirt, the dust The unforgiving promise made to us Unworthy of your light, your god, your touch We're guided by the lust We cry the fallen names We cry for those who burn beneath the flame We stand besides the good and brave The broken and enslaved That is why we live like heathens Stealing from the trees of Eden Living in the arms of freedom And everything we touch is evil That is why we live like heathens Everything you touch will be hers A mother with no heart will give love Her love is yours, but only if you give your heart to her That is why we live like heathens Stealing from the trees of Eden Living in the arms of freedom And everything we touch is evil That is why we live like heathens That is why we live like heathens That is why we live like heathens

When the days are cold And the cards all fold And the saints we see Are all made of gold When your dreams all fail And the ones we hail Are the worst of all And the blood's run stale I want to hide the truth I want to shelter you But with the beast inside There's nowhere we can hide No matter what we breed We still are made of greed This is my kingdom come This is my kingdom come When you feel my heat Look into my eyes It's where my demons hide It's where my demons hide Don't get too close It's dark inside It's where my demons hide It's where my demons hide At the curtain's call It's the last of all When the lights fade out All the sinners crawl So they dug your grave And the masquerade Will come calling out At the mess you made Don't want to let you down But I am hell bound Though this is all for you Don't want to hide the truth No matter what we breed We still are made of greed This is my kingdom come This is my kingdom come When you feel my heat Look into my eyes It's where my demons hide It's where my demons hide Don't get too close It's dark inside It's where my demons hide It's where my demons hide They say it's what you make I say it's up to fate It's woven in my soul I need to let you go Your eyes, they shine so bright I want to save that light I can't escape this now Unless you show me how When you feel my heat Look into my eyes It's where my demons hide It's where my demons hide Don't get too close It's dark inside It's where my demons hide It's where my demons hide

As a child, you would wait, and watch from far away But you always knew that you'd be the one To work while they all play. In youth, you'd lay, awake at night and scheme Of all the things that you would change But it was just a dream. Here we are, don't turn away now We are the Warriors that built this town Here we are, don't turn away now We are the Warriors that built this town from dust. The time will come when you will have to rise Above the best and prove yourself Your spirit never dies. Farewell, I've gone, to take my throne above Don't weep for me, cause This will be the labor of my love. Here we are, don't turn away now We are the Warriors that built this town Here we are, don't turn away now We are the Warriors that built this town from dust. Here we are, don't turn away now We are the Warriors that built this town Here we are, don't turn away now We are the Warriors that built this town from dust
