Starving Gods (Death Whistle Suite)

Priests feed a heart still beating

To the God of Sun and War

Body thrown down the temple steps

A sea of cannibals roar

The gods are starving

But they cannot die

The human engine waits, avatars it creates

Unsleeping and untrue

Sacred or obscene when you become machines

But the gods must have their due

The gods are starving

But they cannot die

They just go on not living

Starving for sacrifice

Where flesh is a prison, pleasure is forbidden

May you get what you deserve

Apotheosis, a magnum opus

We will have the last word

Homo Deus Homo Deus, rock me Homo Deus

The self-made gods of Earth

Sacrifice mythology for godlike technology

What is immortality worth?

Feed us your soul

The Gods are starving

For rock 'n roll

The human engine waits, avatars it creates

Unsleeping and untrue

Sacred or obscene, you worship the machines

But the gods must have their due

Feed us your soul

Humans are the worst, everything's reversed

Your tools are using you

Deified, but you're all gonna die

And I ain't gonna cry when you do
