Unholier Than Thou

Stand, stand before me, I am He
Worship, worship me, my People's Temple
Beg, beg for an ending, from this life
Curse, curse the wicked, for your pain
Pray, pray, pray, pray, pray to me
Die, die, die, die
As a freedom fighter

Unholier than thou, as I speak, of the word, of the lord
A man preaching God, to the throngs, of the people, fell below
Take the lives of my followers
Let them know that their lives are in my hand
Unholier than thou, thou shall drink, drink, drink deep, of the cup

Question, question my, sanity
Condemn, condemn the actions, of my life
Console, console the families, for their loss
Escape, escape this world, and all its pain
Pray, pray, pray, pray, pray for Dad
Die, die, die, die
As a freedom fighter

Unholier that thou as I play, the role, that of God
Follow me my people's temple, enjoying all I see, heavens earth
Watch me as I heal the sick, watch me as I take your life
Unholier than thou, I am, the answer to your prayers

Feel, the presence of God, waiting for your first and final meeting
Accept, your new and final fate, converge together on the other side

Drink deep of the fatal potion, women and the young begin first
Sorry, it's your only way out, we've finally past the point of no return

Watching you lie there, writhing in pain,
confusion, it burns in your eyes
You can't contemplate,
the statement we've made, its impact will scar and defy
These years in Guyana, will not be forgot,
the carnage will stick in their minds
The world mesmerized,
in shock they look on, with horror they sift through the lies

Place the gun to my head, find peace and solitude
I'll take my own life, a cause, I thought to be true
Nine hundred dead, the world must know why
Such death and destruction, such a waste of human life

White, Night, our infamous, mass suicide
Years from now they still will wonder, why, did it have to end this way
