Get Beside Me Satan! - Quiet Company

We’re kicking and we’re screaming all the way to the grave

We were promised something better but when it couldn’t be named

We scorched a bit of earth, and did it all for the fame

And a comfortable position when eternity came

Don’t you kids all wanna wear the mark of the beast?

Don’t you wanna know what it’s been doing to me?

Don’t it ever scare you when they all seem to think

That you mean every word that you say?

Should I trade all of my blue skies for bitter truths?

Or my good name for just a slightly better view?

I’ll do whatever you want me to do.

Emptying my pockets at the end of the day

I found a piece of every pound of flesh I managed to save

Baby, baby, baby, oh, you’ve been so very naughty

You went cheating on your Jesus with that slutty little logic

And now you’re gonna get to be the voice of the few

The unbelieving masses will be looking to you

Don’t you ever worry

You’ve got grit and resolve and the patience of an angel evolved

I love you now, and I loved you then

Will I ever love myself again?

Pretty soon, they’ll all forget that I was ever here

And so will I, with any luck
