all those things that i thought i could learn laid to waste every page and every little word i kept it safe all those nights you laid awake i always thought that you would take another soul another life off to where you think they go i m alive and i can hardly breathe save yourself and turn the other way even though you think it s all a lie pray for nothing then you die by the time you have the mind to think it s far too late you spent your life living in the dark afraid of life the paupers the priests decided they lay on beds made from nails delighted they stay part of the lie bottled inside the liars the sheep decided they leap through gates made of fire denied and they fail save yourself from fates far worse than hell
