Lyrics

    Hey, cruel world. . .
    You don't have what it takes
    We don't need your faith.
    We've got fucking fate. 
    
    Hey, cruel world. . .
    You don't have what it takes
    We don't need your faith.
    We've got fucking fate.
    
    Creator 
    Preserver
    Destroyer
    Ask which one I am. 
    There's no drugged-out devils or
    Square-halo angels
    Walking among us. 
    
    I am among no one
    I am among no one
    I am among no one
    No one
    
    Hey, cruel world. . .
    You don't have what it takes
    We don't need your faith.
    We've got fucking fate. 
    Fate
    Fate
    Fate
    
    The center of the universe
    Cannot exist
    When there are no, 
    No edges
    The center of the universe
    Cannot exist
    When there are no, 
    No edges
    
    Hey, cruel world. . .
    You don't have what it takes
    We don't need your faith.
    We've got fucking fate. 
    Fate
    Fate
    Fate
    
    Fate
    
    Fate, fate, fate
    Fate, fate, fate
    
    I am among no one
    I am among no one
    I am among no one
    No one
    
    Hey, cruel world. . .
    You don't have what it takes
    We don't need your faith.
    We've got fucking fate. 
    Fate
    Fate
    Fate
    Fate
    Fate
    Fate
