No Gods Before Me

[Cass] It started as a dream That trickled through the floor and found you in your cell You named me god and prayed that I should save you from this hell (save me from this hell) And in your arms I felt my wickedness dissolve into the air Despite your faith in me it's you that held the answer to my prayers You've gone right to my head And every day I lived before I met you feels a sacrilegious waste (sacrilegious waste) You put my ghosts to bed And I don't think I'll ever come down From your embrace And as I look to you I see a purity That asks for nothing more than love and turns it to divinity Those selfish eyes that worship you would use you they please To keep you by my side I slit God's throat, brought heaven to its knees But in the aftermath When all was said and done Reflected in your eyes I saw the devil I'd become (devil you'd become) My twisted heart still beating as your bloodied hand unfurled If only I could make you see the darkness of this world It's all gone to my head And every day I live without your love I feel that coldness take its place The dream is at its end But I know you won't ever come back So I embrace Myself
