[Verse 1] Inevitability, you are my mother Bleeding seeds of sour lust Onto the mounds of bleeding crust Unto all that holy dust I shall return Bathed in fire The world is ice But I'm the spark That can ignite your world I can warm you Or I can burn you down [Hook] They tied me to the chain link fence And beat me down--I've no defense I always knew I'd die in... I always knew I'd die in... I always knew... [Verse 2] Impossibility, you are my father Growing limbs of odd proportion Singing psalms of all abortion Speaking truths that are factual But dishonest Because you cannot tell the difference (no) The world is dark But I'm the spark That lights the path I can save you Or I can damn your soul [Hook] They tied me to the chain link fence And beat me down--I've no defense I always knew I'd die in... I always knew I'd die in... I always knew... [Verse 3] Impracticality, you are my brother Raising flags to stay the army Arming thugs who wish to harm me Complying with Spring just to see Winter die And take me with it (because . . .) The world is me And I'm the dark There is no life There is no spark You've murdered me Everything I am I am nothing now You're just like them The world is me And I'm the dark There is no life There is no spark You've murdered me Everything I am I am nothing now You're just like them The birds are bleeding upside-down Their feathers congeal to form my crown And though I stand here, cruciform I am no martyr I will not be reborn And honestly, I'm glad of it I can take it as a compliment And honestly, I'm glad of it I can take it as a compliment And honestly, I'm glad of it I can take it as a compliment [Hook] They tied me to the chain link fence And beat me down--I've no defense I always knew I'd die in... (k** me now) I always knew I'd die in the snow (do it slow) I always knew I'd die in the snow (in the snow)
