lyrics

‘Memphis Whiskey’

There’s something wrong
With our allegory
No heroes, just villains
In these sick, twisted, stories

It’s time we make a difference
It’s time to spread the truth
Fear is the heart of faith
When we put all our faith in you

What will we find
When we’re coming to terms
Only a sad, broken soul
That will never learn

If not for something
We stand for nothing at all
You hold your plastic frame
To stand up so tall

But I know
All the things that I saw
And now
Justice is the only fucking law

The gates of hell
Will open to your name

Look to the darkened skies
That you’ve created
The hue of sin and black
Will soon be faded

This disease leaves me hallow
The black that fills my veins
You feed the fire
I can only hope to contain

This path that I have chosen
The life I lead today
The blood of my brothers
Drowns out the words that you say

You can’t run
You can’t hide
From the fear inside
