Cannot Live Amongst Men

Saw a man fall, and heard the laughter
from you, hear it from you.
Cheered for it all, is nothing sacred
like truth, no, you hate truth.
What’s now your faith has taken your soul
away, so far away,
left you insane, no one should see things
that way, see it that way.

Come night again
we’ll be there to take you down,
come light of day
we’ll be there, and we’ll be loud.
You’ve only proved
that you can’t live amongst men,
you won’t be missed,
we won’t need your kind again.

It’s been too much, and we’ve been to patient
with fools, lying, damn fools.
Thought you were dumb, but not it’s clear that
you’re cruel, evil and cruel.
When your beliefs start to tread freely
that’s enough, more than enough,
let all these liars go and get fired,
tough luck, you deserve such.

Come night again
we’ll be there to take you down,
Come light of day
we’ll be there, and we’ll be loud.
You’ve only proved
that you can’t live amongst men,
you won’t be missed,
we won’t need your kind again.

Sick minds that are hiding
behinds rights sent from God,
you wouldn’t be this twisted,
but somebody spared the rod.
There’s no need to jail you,
we don’t do things that way,
but we’ll make sure every soul
knows the evil games you play.

Come night again
we’ll be there to take you down,
Come light of day
we’ll be there, and we’ll be loud.
You’ve only proved
that you can’t live amongst men,
you won’t be missed,
we won’t need your kind again.
