"In Excelsis Deo" lyrics

"In Excelsis Deo"

Welcome to the digital disconnect
Captivated by the gods that we elect
Live to be seen and gather the masses
Welcome to the digital hierarchy
Building brands out of our identity
Live to be seen
Young gods with the world at our feet
Leave yourself, enter being perceived

We're sold the lie that we could have it all
So obsessed with aesthetics of living
(Of living)
We forgot how to be so we believe
So we obsess over icons
But nothing holds on to the fantasy
Of this intricate fever dream
Leave yourself behind and be seen
'Cause we have all been
Sold the same fucking lie

(God is dead)
(Take his place)

Welcome to the digital disconnect
Captivated by the gods that we elect
Live to be seen and gather the masses
Welcome to the digital hierarchy
Building brands out of our identity
Live to be seen
Young gods with the world at our feet
Leave yourself enter being perceived

Inherent to the human condition
Divine right through the martyr's sacrifice
Worship! In exchange you may find
Your very own place beyond the gates of the sky

(Man was made in the image of God)
(Assimilate yourself and repent)
To ascend through the ranks
Leaving behind your mortal shell
The heaven's angels are singing, you'll hear them down in hell
Break free of your mortal shell

(Can you hear them sing)
(Their angelic hymn)
(Now don't you want to be)
A God just like me?

Welcome (To the digital disconnect)
Welcome (Captivated by the gods that we elect)
Welcome (Can you hear them sing)
Welcome (Live to be seen)
(Young gods with the world at our feet)

(Man was made in the image of God)
(Assimilate yourself and repent)
To ascend!

Can you hear them sing
Their angelic hymn
Now don't you want to be
A God just like me?
