9:30 and the light is gone
some would tell you it's been dead all along
I'll take the rain and the dark but it's not what I need
I know there's something more but that's not what I see
10:30 and it's getting cold
This road to nowhere is getting old
Thought I was right all along
Now I know what's best
I need the hand of a God
to rip me from this flesh
They say that time will heal
but that's just part of the deal
'cause when you turn your back
it'll pull the knife
then sink it in for the rest of your life
and ghosts of mistakes you made
can't stay in their f**ing grave
They'll always follow you, but you should know
to dig it deep and bury 'em down low
It's another perfect ending
To another perfect day
So sing a song of what's not to be
and raise your gla** up high as you reach
'cause you are flesh and you are weak
salute the present 'cause the future's bleak
but there is always a way out if you seek
And so I found another way, a path
but don't follow me there
you should stay, right here
it'd be too much to bear
with that cross of yours already weighing you down
it's much too heavy for the road I found
Cut by cut and line by line
slice, peel and cauterize
The razor goes in then it's off with the skin
and I burn what's left to rip me from this flesh
Rip me from this flesh
and I'd gladly make my way to Hell
but it's so far down
Where's your God now?
Where's your God now?
Cut by cut and line by line
slice, peel and cauterize
The razor goes in then it's off with the skin
and I burn what's left to rip me from this flesh
