I've forgotten the name of the father
Forgotten the name of the son
When I look to their use of the holy ghost
I think they should fear what's to come
I've invited the sins of the flesh
I've decidedly taken them in
When I look to my soul
I don't find it a hole
But I admit it looks a bit thin
In this united state
I have stolen the bread from the alter
I have tempted the fingers of fate
I have spit on the grave of the land of the brave and look to a new united state
I have pulled the wings off of remembrance
I have since set alight to the past
No more wet in these eyes for the lazy
Their head in the sand as the world kicks their a**
In this united...
Through the cinders I since the horizon
Through the embers the body has stirred
The end of the world having since come and gone without whispering so much as a word
As the sun sends the century packing
As the dawn threatens not a clean slate
No where, no way to get back
And no chance of crashing the gate
Guess you'll have to take a part in your own fate
I've bled a fortune worth of lies
I've caused a wealth of heartfelt pain
I stand here cold with searing eyes
Look to the sky to bring the rain
I hold my hoping out of sight
I hold my doubt between my teeth
The years catching up to the right
The truth or lie within belief
