Heretics & Killers

[Verse 1]

They call me the man with the blood of Christ honesty

But tonight (Tonight we'll sleep as killers)

I drink with heathens and our, our finest blasphemies

(As we break the cryptic, as we break the cryptic)

[Verse 2]

In wine there's truth, but in silence there's surrender

A screaming for the silence in stunned suspicious terror

Built a temple in my life and used God to seal the pillars

After twenty years of fighting young heretics and killers

[Verse 3]

I watch my temple fall to pieces

(At the first signs of oncoming weather)

I fell to my knees, just like

Jesus in the cave

Jesus in the cave

Jesus in the cave

I knew I would die, but my lips could only say

"I'm not your son, so why have you forsaken me?"

[Bridge]

(There's a hole in my heart, but it just makes me unholy)

Crucified that night, and I walked away with alter-egos

Prison preacher preaches his dead and buried gospel

[Verse 4]

With my faith in ruins my duty still breathes strong

I'm a parrot in a cage just singing prayers to belong

[Outro]
