A vision entered in a dream
All the departed, gathered up for us to see,
They said, “Hey,
If you want a better life,
Follow our advice,
Honor us tonight,
Sacrifice
And you will receive, all this:
Cattle, Money, Jewels, Toys, Weapons, Science, Industry,
Power, Peace, War, Treats, Your Every Destiny,
You’ll defeat your enemies,
With a flick of our hands,
Everything you need and want,
When the dead return again”
Ah
Sacrificing didn’t work out like we planned
In the beginning, we waited
We were starving by the end.
The dead did never come
Instead of them to us
We all went to them
But on the other side,
Now we have it like they said:
Cattle, Money, Jewels, Toys, Weapons, Science, Industry,
Power, Peace, War, Treats, Our Every Destiny,
I admit it’s a little empty,
When you’re living like a ghost,
Your hands of air own everything,
But there’s nothing you can hold
Ah-
But now I’m on the other side,
So I know we won.
Join me on the other side,
So you’ll know we won.
