Way back in ancient days
|
I took the shape of a golden idol
|
They knelt in front on me
|
Worshipped me prayed to me
|
I saw the greed in their eyes
|
|
Longing - fame and fortune
|
Yearning - wine and women
|
Craving - gold and happiness
|
Demanding - eternal life
|
|
Ever since time began
|
I have been the curse of men
|
I saw them burning down
|
Cities and countries
|
They killed millions of men
|
To please me, to calm me down
|
I saw the greed in their eyes
|
|
I've been around for so long
|
Their faith and devotion make me strong
|
|
They've prayed at my altar
|
With heads bowed real low
|
And I've been around
|
Wherever they go
|
Wherever they go
|
Until the end
|
The end of time
|
There's no escape
|
|
How I like your
|
Sacrifices
|
Ever since time began
|
