DISTURBED
"Deify"

"That's what, I believe, got him reelected
Is the people knew that you could believe what he said."
"Well, that's your repressive government."
"Our country is strong" ("How many people to march, I don't know")
"We go forward to defend freedom" ("Take the government's side")
"All that is good and just..." ("'Just,' yeah, right.")
"...In our world."

All my devotion betrayed
I am no longer afraid
I was too blinded to see
How much you've stolen from me

You want to know why
I feel so horrified
I've let my innocence die
You want to know why
I can't be pacified
You made me bury something
I won't be sleeping tonight

I only wanted a blessing made
Now, I've been labeled a "renegade"
It seems so clear now what I must do
You're no immortal-I won't let them

Deify you
They view you as the new messiah
Deify you
Renew belief in some demented man

You want to know why
It seems the passion's died
We've all been living this lie
You want to know why
My will's been fortified
You made me hunger again
Good luck sleeping tonight

I only wanted a blessing made
Now, I've been labeled a "renegade"
It seems so clear now what I must do
You're no immortal-I won't let them

Deify you
They view you as the new messiah
Deify you
Renew belief in some demented man

All my devotion betrayed
I am no longer afraid (All my devotion betrayed)
(I am no longer afraid)
(I was too blinded to see)
(How much you've stolen from me) How much you've stolen from me

(All my devotion betrayed)
(I am no longer afraid)
(I was too blinded to see)
(How much you've stolen from me) How much you've stolen from me

Deify you
They view you as the new messiah
Deify you
Renew belief in some demented man

Deify you (All my devotion betrayed)
They view you as the new messiah (I am no longer afraid)
Deify you (I was too blinded to see)
Renew belief in some demented man (How much you've stolen from me)
