A Thousand Monsters

You’ll be surprised
When I tell you that
Heaven is hell
And hell is not a mountain
But a well
Of our blood
So they rain on my parade—
A thousand monsters

There was once a time
I’d wonder if time
Was going to take me there
And then I remembered that
God
And his daughter
are only watchers
They watch her
They don’t do anything
They watch her
I’ve seen you before
People like you before
The one you called on before
Your savior.

Fucked your kids
Fucked your wife
Now you’re locked in this life.
A classic tale
Old as tar
Come to me children
I’ll make you a star

Where we will go they’ll hurt us
Still
You know where they
Kill
Us still
Wanting and waiting
Preaching and hating
Said the little girl is bad
Said her brother is mad
Said his sister is evil
Abuse from the steeple
Abusing her people

Found them inside each other
Whispering love
Tore them apart
You only do it here
From here on out
We are your watchers
Feel you within us
To tantalize the preachers
And sing from the bleachers
Fuck you in the vines
Make you all mine
I’ve seen you before
People like you before
The one you called on before
Your savior.

Fucked your kids
Fucked your wife
Now you’re locked in this life.
A classic tale
Old as tar
Come to me children
I’ll make you a star

Where we will go they’ll hurt us
Still
You know where they
Kill
Us still
Wanting and waiting
Preaching and hating
Said the little girl is bad
Said her brother is mad
Said his sister is evil
Abuse from the steeple
Abusing her people

Little girl
Candy sweet girl
Wonder who you’ll meet girl
When you think you’re a clean girl
Miss purity teen 2013 girl
Make love to me in the attic
I swear they think we are addicts
I promise they won’t find us
Trying to harm and to bind us

Where we will go they’ll hurt us
Still
You know where they
Kill
Us still
Wanting and waiting
Preaching and hating
Said the little girl is bad
Said her brother is mad
Said his sister is evil
Abuse from the steeple
Abusing her people

So you’ll be too late
When you relate
To the story I’ll tell you

This is the story of a thousand monsters
A thousand monsters
On top of candy mountain
Raining like blood
Coming out a fountain
That was pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain
