Sacred Beast

We live in the service of the king
Almighty in control of everything
As the queen decides who lives and dies
Tonight we will sing

Love was never more than going
Hmm-hmm-hm-hmm-hmm, hmm-hm-hmm
Hmm-hmm-hm-hmm-hmm, hmm-hm-hmm
Hmm-hmm-hm-hmm-hmm, easiest thing

Our mission is to slay the sacred beast
Who has come to claim our innocence at least
And though those who went before us won't return
For the feast

We'll be riding high and going
Hmm-hmm-hm-hmm-hmm, hmm-hm-hmm
Hmm-hmm-hm-hmm-hmm, hmm-hm-hmm
Hmm-hmm-hm-hmm-hmm, hmm-hm-hmm-hm

Worst of all it knows its only truth is made of lies
Wanting for aught and ever-wise
So there will need to be a compromise
Easier to close our eyes
See the other sides of our disguise

We thought we had found a separate peace
Thought all our pain had finally been released
But as long as it's alive we'll never rest
In one piece

Meanwhile, may it join in going
Hmm-hmm-hm-hmm-hmm, hmm-hm-hmm
Hmm-hmm-hm-hmh-hmm, hmm-hm-hmm
Hmm-hmm-hm-hmm-hmm
