|
I clutched the wheel, burned the trail in search of someone's master plan, |
|
But I dragged myself into the ground in search of a fabled promised land, |
|
This could be my destiny or the death of me, whatever answers first, |
|
I could care less at this point, as long as my story gets told. |
|
The empty dunes whispered certain doom and irrational fears |
|
Began to swallow my every thought and burn inside my ears. |
|
It's louder than the bombs that scream in my dreams. |
|
Can my will alone erase the things I've become? |
|
It's hard to see passed all my failures and loss |
|
When I'm stuck on the path to self-destruction. |
|
Back and forth across the plains, no chance of love, no sign of rain |
|
You killed yourself to live, but your heart gave up before your body did. |
|
Back and forth across the plains, a fractured heart no sign of rain. |
|
Until my head caves in, I'll kill myself just trying... |
|
I swallowed pill after pill with the blood of Christ, cuz heaven needed me, |
|
But when I got there, all the beer was gone and the angels clipped their wings. |
|
I crashed face-first into a stubborn mule to get my point across |
|
Then I woke up with shards of glass in my eye and seven years bad luck. |
|
I'm confessing, this burden of free will is a blessing. |
|
So I'll be the judge, the jury, and the executioner. |
|
The faulty noose at the gallows pole. |
|
Back and forth across the plains, no chance of love, no sign of rain |
|
You killed yourself to live, but your heart gave up before your body did. |
|
Back and forth across the plains, a fractured heart, no sign of rain. |
|
Until my head caves in, I'll kill myself just trying to live |
|
Back and forth across the plains, no chance of love, no sign of rain |
|
You killed yourself to live, but your heart gave up before your body did. |
|
Back and forth across the plains, a fractured heart, no sign of rain. |
|
Until my head caves in, I'll kill myself just trying to love |
|
Cast me to Hell, |
|
I do not seek redemption. |
|
Cast me to hell, |
|
I was born to be a martyr. |
|
Cast me to Hell, |
|
I do no seek redemption. |
|
Cast me to Hell, |
|
I was led into temptation by a man just like you. |
|
I'll see your saint and I'll raise you an ape with no soul |
