"Murder In The First" lyrics - FIT FOR AN AUTOPSY

FIT FOR AN AUTOPSY
"Murder In The First"

[Intro:]
Dear devil, we tried, to move them
We had all the facts
They just overruled them
Slaves to the gods they see in the mirror
Self-inflicted prisoners
Alone for another winter, cold forever

Take everything from them!
They are nothing but a pile of possessions
Empty underneath the rubble
Lost in their selfish transgressions
Godless!

[Hook 2x:]
Bigot nations, cursed at birth
Wealth to wastelands
Murder in the first

Pencil pushers and prescription poppers
Take two and call me when you're numb
Or when your mind succumbs
Worship your workshops
Like thoughtless fucking pigeons with your heads cut off
Twitching in a foolish fucking rhythm

[Chorus:]
Oh child don't look away
I want you to watch the world die
I gave up on living
We should all give death a try

Every last soul, cast into the fire
Watch them burn alive

[Hook 2x:]
Halos and horns
We wear the mark of the beast like a crown of thorns
Halos and horns
We weave a masterpiece of deceit and scorn

[Chorus:]
Oh child don't look away
I want you to watch the world die
I gave up living
We should all give death a try

[Pre-Breakdown]
Every last soul, cast into the fire
Watch them burn alive!

[Breakdown:]
Dear devil, I fucking quit
You can have this world, it's a piece of shit
Dear devil, I fucking quit
You can have this world, it's a piece of shit

[Outro:]
Every last soul, cast into the fire
Watch them burn alive
