Half Light

You can name yourself reborn
Place your life in god’s hands
Assume the martyr role
And take a vow to your death
Severing yourself
From the ones in darkness
And wash away your sins
With the blood that’s still on your head
It won’t save your soul
Purify your flesh
With the gods in the half-light
Channeling your wit
Through the words you write
Carrying your cross
To a higher plane above this
Where there is no remorse
For the wrong you’ve done us all
It won’t save your soul
Won’t change what is… no
The ones you learned to laughed with
Have finally learned their lesson
Standing in the wind
Standing in the wind
All the ones you left for dead
Were merely pawns in your eyes
Sacrificial lambs
To the cause you hide
No one left who knows
Of the serpent in your garden
Who whispers in your ear
All the lies you sold with soul
It won’t save your soul
Won’t change what is… no
The ones you learned to weep with
Have finally learned their lesson
And all the grace you’re blessed with
Won’t save your soul from this
