Resurrection Lyrics

Resurrection

I was born with a set of yellow horns

And a mind that was filled with treason

Couldn't fly so I asked the gods why

But they never gave me no reason

So there I stayed in the coffin that I made

With the rest I never laid

Waiting for resurrection

And for a while I took it with a smile

While I shook away the bile

On the hand I was given

I spied with calibrated eyes

The deception and the lies

In the life I was livin'

Stripped away all the rot and the decay

And the blinders in the way

Of seeing all to clearly

Undermined all the agents of their crimes

And perpetuated lies

That they held so dearly

I sit alone in the land of the unknown

On a dead and broken throne

Waiting for resurrection

So it seems when you start to make a scene

You get tangled in the weeds

With the blind and barren

All the ghouls and the decorated fools

With their shiny little tools

Cut the skin you're wearin'

The price you pay when you strip it all away

So you're seein' clear as day

It ends the life you're livin'

40 years of chokin' back tears

'Til the storms break through

All the damns you've givin'

It's a hard way countin' prices that were paid

For the choices that you made

Waiting for resurrection

Was no time when it wasn't a crime

To declare yourself a heathen

This town will beat you to the ground

And will leave you barely breathin'

So here we stay with a debt we can't pay

Shovin' through another day

Waitin' for resurrection
