Interview With a Vampire
God And Satan Lyrics

You want to talk to God? God never sleeps
God is always accessible and never rests, ready to engage in conversation

Now what came first, the chicken or the egg?
Questioning the origins and cycles of life

Armageddon
The impending end of the world

A arm a leg a leg a arm a head
The structure of human physical form

Headin in your direction
Moving towards understanding and enlightenment

The riddle was the answer to the question
The answer to life's mysteries lies within the questions themselves

Born of the flesh, what is perfection
Seeking the definition of perfection in human existence

Inside my mother's womb, doomed to return to the tomb
Reflecting on the cycle of life and death

Or was it from the dead I was raised?
Contemplating the possibility of resurrection or rebirth

All too soon to pay, on judgement day
The inevitability of being accountable for one's actions on the day of judgement

Is this beginning or the ending
Questioning the nature of existence and whether it is a beginning or an end

Died sinning, still winning, still grinning
Despite committing sins, one can still find joy and success

Verdict still pending, born pretending
The final judgement on one's life is still undetermined, and humans often live in a state of pretense

Three-hundred billion men, women, and children
Acknowledging the vast number of individuals who have existed

Deja vu, could be I'm dreaming
Experiencing a sense of familiarity, possibly questioning the nature of reality

But we all ask for divine reason
Yearning for understanding and purpose

While still breathing, and until leaving
Seeking answers and meaning throughout life

Why do we live just to die?
Questioning the purpose and meaning of life if it ultimately ends in death
