Take Me - Only Crime

Right now like a step outside

My heart beats genocide

Tearing out all the crippled walls

Drawing fire from the mortal flaws

To take it in on the chin, don’t want to face it

We generate our debate to try to place it

Fear the eyes of the blind and the fallen

We cauterize as the dream comes crashing down

And like a poison will coerce you

To the very brink of salient pathologies

Your own disease

And with the whole wide world against you

Is it any wonder that it brings you to your knees?

Make war on the fractured climes

Where the infirmed all run on time

I’ve cried for much less than you

And taken all your pain

Just like a lie you want to throw in the fire

That’s how it feels to be exposed as a liar

You fall in line when there’s nothing real

It takes hold of everything you feel

Your fear surrounds my soul

Your fear creates my light

Your words are not my life

No time to get it right

Your words are not my life

No time, gotta live but there’s no

Time will take me down, it breaks me

Drowning in civility and losses justified

Words like tokens, eyes wide open

Staring down the epitaphs of virtue long denied
