Swords, Dragons & Diet Coke Lyrics
[Verse 1: Mike Hranica]
Be gone with you, you articles of nothingness
I don't know what I have to do to prove myself
This audience is stern
Grey is what has risen from the pits
Choose a new medicine to control it
[Verse 2: Jeremy DePoyster & Mike Hranica]
You thought you had me fooled
The grey, is what has risen from the pits
You thought you had me fooled
The grey, is what has risen from the pits
[Verse 3: Mike Hranica]
My lady, let us waltz
We can ignore the firearms
Guns manufactured by fear
[Verse 4: Jeremy DePoyster & Mike Hranica]
And I will never be forgotten
I will never forget you
And I will never forget you
I will never forget you
I will never forget you
[Verse 5: Jeremy DePoyster & Mike Hranica]
With dead tongues and lonely hearts
We cough the poison out
And yet, I sing a song of hope
Be gone with you, you articles of nothingness
I don't know what I have to do to prove myself
This audience is stern
Grey is what has risen from the pits
Choose a new medicine to control it
[Verse 2: Jeremy DePoyster & Mike Hranica]
You thought you had me fooled
The grey, is what has risen from the pits
You thought you had me fooled
The grey, is what has risen from the pits
[Verse 3: Mike Hranica]
My lady, let us waltz
We can ignore the firearms
Guns manufactured by fear
[Verse 4: Jeremy DePoyster & Mike Hranica]
And I will never be forgotten
I will never forget you
And I will never forget you
I will never forget you
I will never forget you
[Verse 5: Jeremy DePoyster & Mike Hranica]
With dead tongues and lonely hearts
We cough the poison out
And yet, I sing a song of hope
[Verse 6: Jeremy DePoyster & Mike Hranica]
With dead tongues and lonely hearts
We cough the poison out
And yet, I sing a song of hope
[Breakdown: Mike Hranica]
Your final days approach
[Verse 7: Mike Hranica]
This will be our final confrontation
This will be our last
This will be our last
With dead tongues and lonely hearts
We cough the poison out
And yet, I sing a song of hope
[Breakdown: Mike Hranica]
Your final days approach
[Verse 7: Mike Hranica]
This will be our final confrontation
This will be our last
This will be our last
About
Genius Annotation
“Swords, Dragons & Diet Coke” is about struggle with sin. It begins with Mike being very resilient against the Devil. After giving up the Devil, he replaces it with a new addiction – a girl. He falls in love, but in all the wrong ways. The relationship is merely based off of sin like envy and lust. He gives up both the Devil and the girl in a quest to be accepted by Jesus.
