Like a rope the words hang
Tight and heavy on my neck
And every time I spit one out
I'm choking again
Like a rope the words hang

Tight and heavy
Mind and body constrict again
Dancing to rhythm so old
Dragging my corpus through the motions
My corpus through the motions
Stepping on the feet of God

And he's abandoning me
Feel the weight of the world on my shoulders
As it crashes down on me
Are you abandoning me?
No-one leaves if nobody cares
You exist because of me
Like a rope the words hang

Tight and heavy on my neck
And every time I spit one out
I'm choking again
Like a rope the words hang
Tight and heavy
Mind and body constrict again

Pent up and contracted like emotions in a vacuum
Pent up and contracted like emotions in a vacuum

Release me, release me
You will never deceive me
You will never deceive me
I feel control slip away

As I watch you float and fade to grey
You float and fade to grey
Drifting further into the void
I feel control slip away

You float and fade to grey
Drifting further into the void
Drifting away
Into the void
So I burned down the house of God
I burned down the house of God
