No Closer Than A Stranger

You are a servant to your god
You are a slave to a book
You say you're just a messenger
But you'll end up hookedThis place feels like home
Walls echo screaming, No
This tough love feel
Like I'm being chokedDependent on a whim
Bow down before him
You suckle righteousness
And siphon liesThis rope feels like home
My mouth is gagged
Hands are bound
This tough love feels like I'm being drownedAnd in a daze one day
You'll wake up old and gray
And realize you've alienated
Those who cared about youThis place feels like home
Walls echo screaming, No
This tough love feel
Like I'm being chokedSay you will forgive me again
Your pride is the birth of your original sin
Say I can be saved again
Well, I won't and I think you knowSay you will forgive me again
Your pride is the birth of your original sin
Say I can be saved again
Well, I won't and I think you know
Because of youYou are a servant to your god
You are a slave to a book
You say you're just a messenger
But you'll end up hookedThis place feels like home
Walls echo screaming, No
This tough love feel
Like I'm being chokedDependent on a whim
Bow down before him
You suckle righteousness
And siphon liesThis rope feels like home
My mouth is gagged
Hands are bound
This tough love feels like I'm being drownedDrowned
Being drowned
Being drowned
Being drownedSay you will forgive me again
Your pride is the birth of your original sin
Say I can be saved again
Well, I won't and I think you knowSay you will forgive me again
Your pride is the birth of your original sin
Say I can be saved again
Well, I won't and I think you know
Because of youNo, this is not all for him, it's for you
The blessed father
Tainted blood of a martyrThis is not all for him, it's for you
The blessed father
Tainted blood of a martyrTainted blood of a martyr
