[Verse 1]

Still it came passing by

The pieces weaved together rose the sun

And fooled me with another day

The knocking message called for my life


[Verse 2]

Sealed the spell of my scrawny body

Soil to skin, my next of kin

Damp air grasped, stole the words

And greeted me with a hiss


[Verse 3]

This is forgiveness, so I know

Once I repent I seal the lid

I slither for you and I'm dying

I find trust in hate


[Chorus]

They wear white for me

Seemingly jaded and lost

I forge myself into your dreams

And here I am your life


[Bridge]

Hangman, clutching at his tools

I will come for you


[Chorus]

They wear white for me

Seemingly jaded and lost

I forge myself into your dreams

And here I am your life


[Guitar Solo]


[Verse 4]

The noose is tied

Murmur through the crowd

Plunging into

Anywhere but here


[Chorus 2]

Cloak-captured sighs of relief

As the primal touch brought me back

And the last sight I did see is still here

Beckoning right behind me


[Guitar Solo]
