---

Take it all away, my will to bear the load

Twice the pacifist and half the saviour alone

Preaching to the pious, my words fall on ears 

Defended by the insolence resounding in their heads

[CHORUS]

Take it...Slay it...Burn it

Pry it from my dead hands 

Not indebted now and forevermore

Long for the refuge and my obligation ends - I lie to die down here in a pauper's grave

No one wants to be the one that's in a dead world 

Too late, now you will have to walk alone 

The duty of the wretched, chosen by the righteous few

Christened in the sadness, detested even though

Annihilate the guilt, assign the blame as they come

Shoot the messenger - for he's the one who let you down

Eternal victim reigns, you judge the helping hand

Entitled by the bond, martyr them without regard 

[REPEAT CHORUS]

Endless banter with no shred of truth, no limit to what you won't do 

Find the next crutch to suit your needs, reap suffering from the putrid seeds

Beg and borrow - someone must pay 

Drain the light from each working day 

Hell bent on destroying yourself , one last trip to the pity well 

Corrupted by the words you preach, I feel no pain in your defeat

 

Take it all away 

Please just die, for heaven's sake

End this now
