Sever The Ties Lyrics

And I know you're sorry

And I know you're sweet

But you should have thought about it

Before you decided to quit

Cause there's no quitting me

And there's a Wednesday for the ashes

In the cult where I was raised

And I took the whip's lashings

Without proof they would save

Did you know that a mountain of ashes

Is nothing but a grave?

And I know you're sincere

When you're lying through your teeth

But you should have thought about it

When you told me I was neat

Cause there ain't no way that's me

And there's a special day for the ashes

I've heard it said that Jesus saves

I'd take the beatings and the bashings

If it could match the hell I'd raise

Did you know that a mountain of ashes

It's nothing but a grave?

And I feel like a cheat, walking down your street

I never do anything for comfort now

Let's hear it from the freaks, the sinners like the Greeks

If there is a way can you show us how?
