Day of Wrath

I hung my manhood on the rack beside your door
Hoping that would be the last you'd ask for more
Like a vampire, your teeth and nails tore through my skin
Grief and failure overwhelm me once again
I drop my tears into the well of your soul
Of hopes and fears induced by the hell that you control
The burning furnace, it lies behind those deceiving eyes
Which serves one purpose, to ensure my heart's demise

I don't need you, never will and never have
I don't want you, but I'm still stuck in the grasp
Of your love
Of your chains I see as arms
Your lying lips
And every kiss you send is followed by a fist
To my heart

I pour out my soul in hopes to keep you satisfied
At the end of my rope I reluctantly provide
Your grateful song will then convince me one more time
To sing along while my own conscience is compromised
Your empty promise still is clear inside my mind
Your seeming honesty's concealed by your lies
You took it all from me and covered up your tracks
So you could do the same to another honest man

I don't need you, never will and never have
I don't want you, but I'm still stuck in the grasp
Of your love
Of your chains I see as arms
Your lying lips
And every kiss you send is followed by a fist
To my heart

And on that day of wrath
When you chose to cross my path
I was unaware of my mistake
I'll never be the same
Since in your book you wrote my name
I pray one day my soul is saved

I don't need you, never will and never have
I don't want you, but I'm still stuck in the grasp
Of your love
Of your chains I see as arms
Your lying lips
And every kiss you send is followed by a fist
To my heart
