lyrics

I admit I have used your good blessing wrong
I admit I am puny and you are strong
But what did you expect from a lowly man?
Why should I be a vessel for such a plan?

I am human
You are a god
At your blessing
Watch me spit blood

I do hope you’re enjoying this spectacle
Holy power destroying a mere mortal
May I ask how in all your good knowing grace
Could you not see my wish was a huge mistake?

I am human
You are a god
At your blessing
Watch me spit blood

I will sing to all those seeking holy deeds
“Man does not know the things that he truly needs,
And if by some disaster his will succeeds
It will undo him, as it has undone me”

For we am human
They are the gods
At their blessings
Let us spit blood
