King Other

I will chase you out of bed
I am the king of every voice inside your head
The harder you buck me
The tighter my knot
So you better love me, child, because I'm all that you got

The games you must play (He made them)
The lies you must say (He told us to)
Guardians of the gods (He paid them)
And objectivity (He says what's true)

My burden is to correct you
Without me the chaos would reign
But don't be afraid - I'll always protect you
Once they've wired me into your brain

Everything that's mine can be yours
I am your Mother Mary and your Babylon Whore
The harder you fuck me
The stronger my plea
I'll swallow down all your pain if you just never leave me

Silence of the Sirens
Reprise of the womb
Keeper at the gates of life
And the lust for the tomb

You need me to assess you
Without me you'd be such a bore
Don't be so vain - I'd never possess you
That's what your fragile ego is for!

Through the Word it shall begin
A choir of discipline and sin
Day by day the voices slowly work their way under your skin
(You are mine)
Install a monarchy within
(You are mine)
And you'll be strong because of Him

(Yea...)

Every God and every State
Imbued with power you create
You project upon your idols all they need to set your fate
(It's your time)
There's just one step left to take
(It's your time)
For you to own the life you make

We, we are the sunrise
Of the soul
Every voice becoming whole
Eyes of the other know
You let us go

You, you scorned the shadows
Of your soul
Just to survive
Trading the whole
Where did your brother go?
Far, far below
So far, far below

So, find him just go
He lives inside
Hearts that you least want to know
