Deified

Step into the light
Deny
The chasing of the wind
Secret sin that triggers hidden memories to activate again
Disappointment in proportion to how long you've been around
Everyone's here long enough just to let you down

Man casts a shadow
It takes you over

Out of the darkness into light
We open up our eyes
Trying to make the most of just one life
Who are you going to look to when all your heroes have died?
All the ashes deified

Yeah

All those years of blind ambition, back against the wall
He makes subterfuges mission, setting up a cataclysmic fall
A betrayal in the dark he fell upon, said no goodbyes
After all, his heart revealed where his treasure lies

Man casts a shadow
Oh, heart, deceitful

Out of the darkness into light
We open up our eyes
Trying to make the most of just one life
Who are you gonna look to when all your heroes have died
And it's dust you deified?

Burn your idols, holy fire
Before they can burn you
Sad denial of liars
Aversion to the truth

You and I or the fallen
Should never wear a crown
These pedestals are gallows
We've come to tear them down!

Out of the darkness into light
We open up our eyes
Trying to make the most of just one life
Who are you gonna to look to when all your heroes have died?
When your gods have changed to still remains, it's dust you deified
