The Elephant in the Room

So, you wanna build a pasture out of mayhem?
You wanna teach a preacher how to fake it?
You want to bring your prisoners to meet him?
Well, get your ass in line, because I've been waiting too.
And that's just fine.
Cross out those lines.
Faking an exit takes creative passion that I don't quite own
Now
I'm losing sleep which is apparently
a mistake I've made for a while now,
Which is brand new fucking news to me
Breathe the air this world bleeds out
Drain the blood from your enemies mouths
Quick, steal to the cabin where hunting is allowed
Make way for the coming Sun,
Because I'm cheating death for one last night out
That's just fine
I'm gonna die tonight
We're not alright but the trouble is we've been troubled
for such a long, long time
