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
