Worthy Host

I was kept in the dark about the true nature of life and how it ends
How the soul will find another worthy host to make amends

I lead them all into the woods
I hold their hands as we climb the mud
I say the words and try to stop the screams
The end will always justify the means

And as I walk away, the ground beneath me falls
Dragged deeper into the ground
And as you take your place, a trophy on the walls
The gate keeper moves to the sound...

The great culling of the weak
The only justice I seek

And the thought of the bodies just follows me around
Wonder what they look like, rotting in the ground
And when the police come by, I'll cry just like I rehearsed
Then go back to feeling nothing, just the unrelenting thirst

And the thought of the bodies just follows me around
Wonder what they look like, rotting in the ground
And when the police come by, I'll cry just like I rehearsed
Then go back to feeling nothing, just the unrelenting thirst
