The deal is fixed
The cards are cut
All of the heathens
They are drinking from the cup
This crooked game
Is not of luck

Digging down
To reach the top
Followers all scream for more until they're drunk
And all god's children could give a fuck

[Chorus]
The way of the beast is tragedy by design
Collateral waste
Will you drown in the noise you have made?
Surrounded by darkness
You won't hide from the lights
There is no escape
From the ones who would profit from shame
Will you drown in the noise you have made?

The wings are clipped
The bird half-cut
Gone is the one who made her home among the stars
A fall from grace
Becomes her art
Digging down
No looking up
When the riches and rewards are not enough
And all god's children could give a fuck
[Chorus]
The way of the beast is tragedy by design
Collateral waste
Will you drown in the noise you have made?
Surrounded by darkness
You won't hide from the lights
There is no escape
From the ones who would profit from shame
Will you drown in the noise you have made?

[Bridge]
They'll chew you up and spit you out
The promise of demise is a religion
The audience makes no sound
They can't take their eyes off a collision

[Chorus]
The way of the beast is tragedy by design
Collateral waste
Will you drown in the noise you have made?
Surrounded by darkness
You won't hide from the lights
There is no escape
From the ones who would profit from shame
Will you drown in the noise you have made?
Erased!

When enough is enough
Not enough is too much
When enough is enough
Not enough is too much
When enough is enough
Not enough is too much
When enough is enough
Not enough is too much

The will of the beast is tragedy by design

Such a waste
