Heathen's Plea
Let the record show, when it came to blows
I took my share and got gone
I drew a line, thin as it was
I drew a line and got gone
So when you meet your god
And you face him like a man
Omnipotent as you say he is
He will know who I am
You can't hide, you can't hide
From yourself all the time
You'll see me in her eyes
You'll see me every time
Oh I don't know your god
Or if he listens to a heathen's plea
But I don't forgive
And I don't regret
If I can't remember
I pray to god you never forget
We were kids once beneath the trees
Bloody knuckles and bruised knees
My wounds festered and yours healed
Now I'm an open book and you're sealed
Oh to be a man of virtue
Oh to have the power to hurt you
Synthetic heartbeat, synthetic shame
Still I can't even say your name
But when you meet your god
And you face him like a man
Omnipotent as you say he is
He will know who I am
You can't hide, you can't hide
From yourself all the time
You'll see me in her eyes
You'll see me every time
Oh I don't know your god
Or if He listens to a heathen's plea
But I don't forgive
And I don't regret
If I can't remember
I pray to god you never forget
Back at home, blackout
Dig in your nails to rip them out
Don't exist until you say I do
Really got nothing to lose
Fetishize the way I bleed
And your power over me
Bruises up and down my spine
No witness, no alibi
You can't keep anyone close
I wonder what your thoughts are like
When you are alone
Do you remember how I used to glow?
All I wanted was a ride home
You can't hide, you can't hide
From yourself all the time
You'll see me in her eyes
You'll see me every time
Oh I don't know your god
Or if He listens to a heathen's plea
But I don't forgive
And I don't regret
If I can't remember
I pray to god you never forget
You can't hide, you can't hide
From yourself all the time
You'll see me in her eyes
You'll see me every time
Oh I don't know your god
Or if He listens to a heathen's plea
But I don't forgive
And I don't regret
If I can't remember
I pray to god you never forget
I took my share and got gone
I drew a line, thin as it was
I drew a line and got gone
So when you meet your god
And you face him like a man
Omnipotent as you say he is
He will know who I am
You can't hide, you can't hide
From yourself all the time
You'll see me in her eyes
You'll see me every time
Oh I don't know your god
Or if he listens to a heathen's plea
But I don't forgive
And I don't regret
If I can't remember
I pray to god you never forget
We were kids once beneath the trees
Bloody knuckles and bruised knees
My wounds festered and yours healed
Now I'm an open book and you're sealed
Oh to be a man of virtue
Oh to have the power to hurt you
Synthetic heartbeat, synthetic shame
Still I can't even say your name
But when you meet your god
And you face him like a man
Omnipotent as you say he is

You can't hide, you can't hide
From yourself all the time

You'll see me every time

You can't hide, you can't hide
From yourself all the time
You'll see me in her eyes
You'll see me every time
Oh I don't know your god
Or if He listens to a heathen's plea
But I don't forgive
And I don't regret
If I can't remember
I pray to god you never forget
