♫ When the god of love returns
♫ There'll hell to pay
♫ Though the world may be out of excuses
♫ I know just what I would say
♫ Let the seven trumpets sound
♫ As the locust sky grows dark
♫ But first let's take you on a quick tour
♫ Of your creation's handiwork
♫ Barely got through
the prisons and stores
♫ The pale horse looks a little sick
♫ Says Jesus, you didn't
leave a whole lot for me
♫ If this isn't hell already,
then tell me what the hell is
♫ We say, it's just human
♫ Human nature
♫ This place is savage and unjust
♫ We crawled out of the darkness
♫ And endured your impatience
♫ We're more than willing to adjust
♫ And now you've got the gall to judge us
♫ The spider spins his web
♫ The tiger stalks his prey
♫ And we steal fire from the heavens
♫ To try to keep the night at bay
♫ Every monster has a code
♫ One that steadies the shaking hand
♫ When he's determined
to accrue more capital
♫ By whatever means he can
♫ Oh, it's just human
♫ Human nature
♫ We've got these appetites to serve
♫ You must not know the first thing
♫ About human beings
♫ We're the Earth's most soulful predator
♫ Maybe try something less ambitious
♫ The next time you get bored
♫ Oh my Lord
♫ We just want light in the dark
♫ Some warmth in the cold
♫ And to make something out of nothing
♫ Sounds like someone else I know
