Darkest Hour - No Closer Than A Stranger lyrics

You are a servant to your god You are a slave to a book You say you are just a messenger But you'll end up hooked This place feels like home Walls echo, screaming no This tough love feels Like I'm being choked Dependant on a whim Bow down before him You s**le righteousness And siphon lies This rope feels like home My mouth is gagged My hands are bound This tough love feels like I'm being drowned And in a daze one day You'll wake up old and gray And realize you've alienated Those who cared about you Say you will forgive me me again Your pride is the birth of your original sin Say I can be saved again Well I won't and I think you know Because of you This is not all for him It's for you The blessed father Tainted blood of a martyr
