THE DIVINE RIGHT OF KINGS LYRICS

"Modern Morals"

In the end we're only heroes if we die
'Cause I think my times is running thin
Now I am sick with a self inflicted disease
Self medicated with a bottle of whiskey

Wake up
She called out to me
From the side of the hospital bed

Oh my fucking head is in shambles
It's all coming back to me now
My body it aches from the burden
My hands they constantly shake

It's suicide in the fashion
Of pushing limits aside
This nauseating distraction
Will lead me to my demise

Just breathe new life into my cancer ridden lungs
And in the same breathe, relieve me of the awful things I’ve done
I never saw this coming; I guess it’s no surprise

The American dream has laid waste to so many how can we truly believe in it’s worth
I've separated the cause from the actions
And still I'm left with nothing at all

And I know come hell or high water
I’ll be in heaven by the break of dawn
‘Cause I’ve lived by modern morals
And never listened to the threats of this world

'Cause I've got my vices on me and I've been pushing them way too hard
And in the end all we've got is these modern morals

Self admitting myself to the gallows
A choice I unknowingly made
They’ll issue a search warrant at my expense
But it won’t amount to anything

I am sick from a self inflicted disease
There ain't a fucking cure
