Gods and Monsters
From the album Born to Die, released in 2012/393. I would never have heard it if not by way of ❲Jessica Lange's rendition of it in❳ American Horror Story ❲season 4, 2014/396❳. 🫢
In the land of gods and monsters I was an angel ⑊ living in the garden of evil Screwed up, scared, ⑊ doing anything that I needed Shining like a fiery beacon You got that medicine I need Fame, liquor, love, ⑊ give it to me slowly Put your hands on my waist, ⑊ do it softly Me and God, we don't get along, ⑊ so now I sing [chorus] No one's gonna take my soul away I'm living like Jim Morrison Headed towards a fucked up holiday Motel sprees, sprees and I'm singing "Fuck yeah, give it to me, ⑊ this is heaven, what I truly want" It's innocence lost, innocence lost In the land of gods and monsters I was an angel ⑊ looking to get fucked hard Like a groupie incognito, posing ⑊ as a real singer Life imitates art You got that medicine I need Dope, shoot it up, straight ⑊ to the heart, please I don't really wanna know ⑊ what's good for me God's dead, I said, "Baby, ⑊ that's alright with me" [chorus] No one's gonna take my soul away.. When you talk, it's like a movie ⑊ and you're makin' me crazy 'Cause life imitates art If I get a little prettier, ⑊ can I be your baby? You tell me life isn't that hard [chorus] No one's gonna take my soul away..
