|
We are the salt of the Earth |
|
In that we salt this Earth with our bodies |
|
Conceived as a curse |
|
Condemned as a child of waste |
|
We are born hanged |
|
And we die in peace |
|
Lay our bodies to rest |
|
We do not fear death |
|
Usurp our legacy |
|
Spare us an eternity |
|
In Hell |
|
We are nothing but a jilted existence |
|
Conscience in a prison of flesh |
|
Forsaken life |
|
Conceived as a curse |
|
Condemned as a child of waste |
|
We are born hanged |
|
And we die in peace |
|
One more second in this life and we'll break |
|
Hopeless nothingness is all that we face |
|
I can see the light |
|
I can see the point of escape |
|
Bring me the hangman |
|
Let me slip through the gate |
|
No heaven |
|
No forgiveness |
|
Born hanged into a world |
|
To witness |
|
I can see the light |
|
I can see the point of escape |
|
We treat death as a long lost friend |
|
He gives us freedom from this world in the end |
|
But strike me down |
|
Take me instead |
|
For when I was born |
|
I was already dead |
