Modern Deities Lyrics by Anna Owens

Ribs

2023

(Intro)
I'd rather be called naive
Then to worship your modern deities
I'd rather be called crazy
Then to bow before your feet
(Pre-Chorus)
So get your expectations off of me
Your rules and formalities
Don't you know
I'm tired of playing ceremony
(Chorus)
Well, throw me in the furnace
Because I'm not burning up
Ooo - sick of hearing your deeds were done in the name of love
Ooo - sick of hearing your deeds were done in the namе of love
(Verse 1)
Wickеd men pretend they are God's hands
Covered behind the curtain and they talk to us through the television
Molding the trustful minds of the next generation
Slicing the ties between you and I
Because Satan knows his control lies within the Church's division
They unplug your morality
When you're watching the Grammys
Being taught to envy high society
'Cause you'll do anything to be like them
You'll do anything to gain their admiration
Just to taste the fruits of your temptation
Oh and learn to lust for the things you know you shouldn't have
'Cause they feed you lies as facts
Because they don't care about the consequence nor do they care for you and me
Uh - however they do care for your money
Speaking words as sweet as honey
Like idols laying children at their feet
Watching public figures like a puppet show
So, point the light and see the strings
They're monetizing off our own inadequacy
(Repeat Pre-Chorus, Chorus)
(Verse 2)
Make sure the crowds remember your name
Treat fame like the highest pursuit
You can get it if you're willing to forsake truth and your humanity
Leave it to the people to decide either you live or bleed
Wear your crown of fleeting glory
And sit on your glass throne that breaks so easily
N' who wouldn't like to live out their dream?
N' do as you please?
Before the altar of popularity you sacrifice your beliefs
A small price to pay for a lifetime guarantee
Forget about your true identity
So far in, you cannot leave
Cut yourself out of the Author's story
Turn your back on the life you knew
You can gain the world and lose your soul
(Repeat Pre-Chorus, Chorus)
