Moonwalker - New God Lyrics

I stood at the altar
And worshiped a stranger
Baptized in the water
And absolved of my pain
I thought you were holy
I thought you could save me
I gave you my future
And you don't know my name
Guess this is the thanks that I get
You cast me out and you throw me away
Everything must come to an end
You've already died twice
You can still be replaced
We need a new god
We need a savior
Maybe a new start
Isn't the worst idea
We need a new god
A great entertainer
We need an angel
Or something that looks like it
New god
Someone who can save us from the way we are
We need a new start
We'll blame all of our problems on the old one
New God
Raise your boys to be sons
And your girls to be daughters
To walk in a straight line
And do as they're told
Tell them they're worth only as much as they're making
That no one will love them if they don't fit the mold
We need a new god
We need a savior
Maybe a new start
Isn't the worst idea
We need a new god
A great entertainer
We need an angel
Or something that looks like it
New god
Someone who can save us from the way we are
We need a new start
We'll blame all of our problems on the old one
New God
