"Life > Death" lyrics - THE CULT

You break the man
Leave his shell on the ground
What have you done
With your own life your world

Shared everythin' I've been
Speak everythin' I've seen
So kill your jealousy
And what you believe

You can't destroy them
The beauty and the youth
You'll never beat them
You'll never hide the truth
You can't destroy them
The beauty and the youth
You'll never beat them
You'll never hide the truth

I lay down with the beasts on the ground
Where prophets cry
In every tear a prayer forever

Shared everythin' I've been
Speak everythin' I've seen
So kill your jealousy
And what you still believe

You can't destroy them
The beauty and the youth
You'll never beat them
You'll never hide the truth

Destroy destroy destroy it all
What I don't understand
Why you destroy everythin'
So beautiful in your hand yeah

Come on and hate strips it away
The essence of a man
We'll weave a golden noose
And hang you from the stars

Hey now you can make it right
Hey now the lightnin' and the fight
Hey now the power and the glory
And hey now hey now you can make it right
Hey yeah gotta make me fight
And hey now gotta make it now
