They

They said worship us and you'll live 

They said touch us and you'll live 

 

They see a face worn out 

They see a coward with doubts 

That's why they think I'm a hollow threat they have to surround

They think they can see the dead remains inside 

 

Fools! because they never looked me in the eye 

If they had they'll know they've been defeated even before all this started out 

How can you threaten me to beg for my life 

When I kill my self every night
