God this must, must be for certain
If you are here
Raise my world an ossuary

Staring through the gate wide-eyed
Did you think I'd salivate and beg
Don't sell me tones of liberation

Standing in a cage
May you find that
In this sinister lapse we'll heal our side

Save your tears my child
Take it, hold it, keep it know
We choose this suffering

There they stand
Straining to scrutinize the sage
String me up these soap box augers

Seeking out the ways divined
Here from the citadel it's claimed
Serpents waiting in the shadows

Keep us from the dream
May you find that
In this sinister lapse we'll heal our side

Save your tears my child
Take it, hold it, keep it know
We choose this suffering

I pushed the button and I pulled the trigger
I killed our brothers and murdered our sisters
I am the pattern, the plague, and the prison

And I tore the wound and let it bleed
May you find that
In this sinister lapse we'll heal our side

Save your tears my child
Take it, hold it, keep it know
We choose this suffering and we are not alone
