I saw the congregation rise
And preach their holy book of lies
They point at me who won't believe
Won't believe, can't deceive
I will refuse, refuse
Defuse
Words of wisdom faltering
Written for the sake of flattery
Who are you to preach the truth
What right do you profess
Everything you love will die
Everything you love will die
Everything you love shall die
Everything you love must die
I see the scene upon the screen
He's shaking bad, pumped full of drugs
They whisper words of holiness
He nods and nods in perpetual glare
Healing power numbs his brain
Morphine now is his god
And even in death they hound him down
To corrupt the spirit is the way
Everything you love will die
Everything you love will die
Everything you love shall die
Everything you love must die
All your love and all your dreams
Will shrivel and die like wilting blooms
These gleeful hopes and ambitions
Will rot away your very soul
I love the lie, you'll learn to live
I love the lie, the life I live
My eyes are open wide and clear
To see this glorious sight that's here
Everything you love will die
Everything you love will die
Everything you love shall die
Everything you love must die
