Lyrics

Punishment

Take all my money, but leave me my soul Burn down my house, I'm ready to go Backwards, but without plans to regress You can have all of me, a pound of my flesh 'Cause Mama I was told that punishment will come to Those of us who don't do what we're made to But how on earth is anyone to know If the lane you travel is your own Take all my blood out and bottle it up If you'd like to try a sip, I'll grab you a cup Open my skull and play with my brain Poke around all you wish, just free me from pain 'Cause Mama I was told that punishment will come to Those of us who don't do what we're made to But how on earth is anyone to know If the lane you travel is your own
