Humanity at the peak
Of another mountain tall
Crown of the modern day
Yet history would indicate
We climb to the top of the world
Just to fall down
We climb to the top of the world
Just to fall down

Here today and gone today
Like dew we will evaporate
Here today and then we're gone away
It's the air we breath
We are gods and we are kings
It's the lie we believe
We are gods and we are kings
It's the lie we've bought from the beginning
Abandon wisdom, take and eat
Become gods and kings

And repeat
This cycle defines the need
Disguised as the modern way
Let's quit this endless masquerade
We build these cities of straw
Just to burn down
We build these cities of straw
Just to burn down
Here today and gone today
Like dew we will evaporate
Here today and then we're gone away

It's the air we breath
We are gods and we are kings
It's the lie we believe
We are gods and we are kings
It's the lie we've bought from the beginning
Abandon wisdom, take and eat
Become gods and kings
It's the air we breath
It's the lie we believe
(It's the lie we've bought from the beginning)
Abandon wisdom, take and eat
Become gods and kings
