The Prophet

A steady stream of words is coming out Of my insatiable and filthy mouth Just let me cover up this mad world So deafening, it really calms me down I'm spreading all my voices on earth Nothing's more beautiful than my own sound My wisdom over and over Begins to grow because of things that I told you I'm like a god that deafens all mediocre As long as I just talk I don't hear you suffering Have you ever heard my story Venerate my wisdom My words in a blaze of glory Shut it up and listen And now while the earth keeps turning (and now) I know that people are yearning For anything other than death and misery Somebody like me A steady stream of words is coming out Of my insatiable and filthy mouth Am I the only speaker far and wide Am I the only one who's satisfied It's soothing the noise freezing over I love when I don't hear the screams of the soldiers I'm like a god that deafens all mediocre As long as I just talk I don't hear them suffering I don't hear you scream Have you ever heard my story Venerate my wisdom My words in a blaze of glory Shut it up and listen And now while the earth keeps turning (and now) I know that people are yearning For anything other than death and misery Somebody like me
