I've forgotten the name of the father.
|
Forgotten the name of the son.
|
When I look to their use of the holy ghost,
|
I think they should fear what's to come.
|
I've invited the sins of the flesh, I've decidedly taken them in.
|
When I look to my soul, I don't find it a hole,
|
but I admit it looks a bit thin.
|
|
In this united state.
|
|
I have stolen the bread from the alter,
|
I have tempted the fingers of fate.
|
I have spit on the grave of the land of the brave
|
and look to a new united state.
|
I have pulled the wings off of remembrance,
|
I have since set alight to the past.
|
No more wet in these eyes for the lazy,
|
their head in the sand as the world kicks their ass.
|
|
In this united...
|
|
Through the cinders I since the horizon,
|
through the embers the body has stirred.
|
The end of the world having since come
|
and gone without whispering so much as a word.
|
As the sun sends the century packing,
|
as the dawn threatens not a clean slate.
|
No where, no way to get back,
|
and no chance of crashing the gate.
|
|
Guess you'll have to take a part in your own fate.
|
I've bled a fortune worth of lies,
|
I've caused a wealth of heartfelt pain,
|
I stand here cold with searing eyes,
|
look to the sky to bring the rain,
|
I hold my hoping out of sight,
|
I hold my doubt between my teeth,
|
The years catching up to the right,
|
the truth or lie within belief.
