Fire Or Knife

Why are we even breathing?

If the only reason to exist

(Is to stare skyward and put my hands together)

Then why am I even here?

To serve a myth

(And carry these burdens on my chest)

As it caves in and free will gives way to

The guilt of lost and misinterpreted verses



I can't see the logic in falling to my knees

Where is the logic? There is no logic!

I was blinded and inducted

(Into a world that has no meaning

No basis for belief

And now they wonder why I'm seething)

I'll spit this in their faces

And burn their false pretences

(On which they stand

The pulpit burying our youth)

Beneath the tides of callous sands

No room to breathe, oh

No room to breathe



In the chambers of your guilt

Under a cross and devils' gaze

While you sit and wait to die

There'll be no god

In the cold night sky



There's no god who can hear you

There's no god who understands

(Who understands

Regrets too often haunt us

Again and again

Sometimes it seems so hopeless

But we cannot give in

When all our best decisions

Prove us wrong

And when we're only waiting

For goodbyes

We've already given in, given in

We've already given in, given in

We've already given in

We've already given in, given in)

But we're never giving in



There is no god who can hear you

Just a sky full of stars

The same stars you will be wishing on

When death comes to call on us

Call on us
