Heathens

She bargains with the world So everything she wants will come to her With no greed inside her mind She knows what she deserves We fell from sky with grace And landed in her soft and warm embrace She gave her love, her gift of life So we could live with her That is why we live like heathens Stealing from the trees of Eden Living in the arms of freedom And everything we touch is evil That is why we live like heathens The stone, the dirt, the dust The unforgiving promise made to us Unworthy of your light, your god, your touch We're guided by the lust We cry the fallen names We cry for those who burn beneath the flame We stand besides the good and brave The broken and enslaved That is why we live like heathens Stealing from the trees of Eden Living in the arms of freedom And everything we touch is evil That is why we live like heathens Everything you touch will be hers A mother with no heart will give love Her love is yours, but only if you give your heart to her That is why we live like heathens Stealing from the trees of Eden Living in the arms of freedom And everything we touch is evil That is why we live like heathens That is why we live like heathens That is why we live like heathens
