Pauper's Grave

Take it off
You will find another cross to wear
Pay back, pay back
You blew me off
Finished with a job you didn't start
But i know, i know
You're scared of what you think you'll find when you were all alone
You're pulling punches while you're bathing in the afterglow
I guess the life I'm living should be none of your concern
I am a painting of a person
I'd love to watch you burn out

Take it off
You will find another cross to wear
Pay back, pay back
You blew me off
Finished with a job you didn't start
But i know, i know
You're scared of what you think you'll find when you were all alone
You're pulling punches while you're bathing in the afterglow
I guess the life I'm living should be none of your concern
I am a painting of a person
I'd love to watch you burn out

And like the light that softly wimpers
Through the shadows on your bed
I will fade into the black
Beneath the candles on your altar
Where the dope-sick vagrants lie
I will split myself in two
And when they sacrifice my liver
And they bleach my crooked bones
I will die with a smile on my lips
For this world of mine is burning, there is nothing left within
This world of mine is burning, there is nothing left within

I resolve to let the lightness in
I resolve to let the lightness in
I resolve to let the lightness in
