Emerging into the death metalscene in 1987 from Florida, USAunder the name of Amon, they quickly became one of the most successful Death Metal bands of all time. After releasing two demos as "Amon," they changed their name to Deicidein 1990 and released their self-titled album shortly afterwards. Only two original members of the band remain: Glen Benton (bass/vocals)and Steve Asheim (drums); and Jack Owen on the guitar. Glen Benton, whose controversial lyrics cover such topics as Satan and death, showed his hatred for Christianity by pressing a red-hot inverted cross to his forehead until his skin scarred in that shape. The manner of Glen Benton's antichristianity has been a matter of debate for Deicide fans even from the early days of the band.

Creatures Of Habit Lyrics

Deicide

What in the world do you wish to achieve
Why do you think you'll get something for free
Look in yourself, is it worth what you said
It may be you who comes turning up dead
Lives are worth nothing unless you have something to gain
Loath in assumption, you really should watch what you say
When you are wrong it is all just a part of a game
Creatures of habit, the bullshit is always the same
Eye for an eye, applaud when you die
Shit on your grave for the rest of my life
Faces of two will divide for control
You are the pawns in this world all alone
Creatures of habit, to cease to exist
Now that it's over you'll get what you give
Creatures of habit, I daydream you dead
Choking the life from you with my bare hands
What in the world is becoming of greed
Why do you wish to continue this dream
Look at myself, isn't worth what I'm dealt
This may be for you but I'm getting out
Unfair decision you try to impose out of spite
In their own interest they care and pretend to be nice
I will not have it and now that I've opened my eyes
Creatures of habit, I have no respect for your kind
