|
I shake the dust from off myself |
|
And set my face like flint. |
|
Scorch the thorns entangling me |
|
And pull me closer into you, |
|
Because this city's full of devils |
|
And the streets clad with coal. |
|
I remember every waking day |
|
As I chewed on your soul. |
|
On and on, |
|
A recollection of our failure |
|
On and on, |
|
Forget the past, we're moving onward. |
|
Tell my devils I'm never coming back |
|
I can see that your motives are not pure, and I feel ashamed. |
|
I can see that your motives are not pure, they're not yours! |
|
THROW THE STONES, THEY WEIGH HEAVY IN YOUR HANDS! |
|
THROW THE STONES, THEY WEIGH HEAVY IN YOUR HANDS! |
|
On and on, |
|
A recollection of our failure. |
|
On and on, |
|
All the people crushed on the threshing floor. |
|
I can see that your motives are not pure, and I feel ashamed. |
|
This body, a burning building, |
|
It's nothing but flesh and bone. |
|
This body, a burning building, |
|
Turn and run or face the hounds. |
|
FACE THE HOUNDS! |
|
Tell my devils I'm never coming back. |
