With Cold Eyes - BoySetsFire

It’s no wonder we’re all scared

When our submission makes demands

And who the hell are you

Is it asked or forced to do

Do you pray for holiness

Or just prey on my willingness

To starve, beg, consume

For something you can’t prove

If I’m unworthy, it’s you that brought me here

I sacrificed so much just to let you own my fears

Please don’t let go of me

And I will carry on

With your burden on my shoulders

Where’s the white washed tomb out of which your god’s been exhumed

A corpse to force my guilt

Through lips you thought you’d sealed

And sins you can’t let go

Have blinded you on your throne

And left me here alone

If I’m unworthy, it’s you that brought me here

I sacrificed so much just to let you own my fears

Please don’t let go of me

While god sleeps the righteous feed upon the meek

What kind of father sits and lets his children bleed

Don’t just stand there show us all if this is true

That your love and mercy isn’t for a chosen few

If I’m unworthy, it’s you that brought me here

I sacrificed so much just to let you own my fears

Please don’t let go of me
