You'd think it'd be no surprise
Learning lessons, all the precious treasures
Take all that you've got
I'll take your ready hand with a ready blade
Dead set to make you lie in the bed you've made
Paid in full, I'll take it from your pride
I don't know what you thought
But you've gone past the line
And you've got me wrong
The time has come, your song has long been sung
Brought down, you won't have long to go
I'm not cutting a loss again
You won't have long to go
An hourglass of sand, and I'll be on time
Inform the rest
Run as fast as you can, hell's coming for you
Try to strike and then slip away
But I won't let you leave without feeling an equal pain
You'll see, because I'll make you see
Left in my council you'll know
What it means to respect me
Once I've caught you alone
I'll teach you all you need to know
Pray, once I've caught you alone
That I teach you all you need to know
You've got me wrong
The time has come, your song has long been sung
Brought down, you won't have long to go
I'm not cutting a loss again
You won't have long to go
I wish I held desire solely to right this wrong
Take careful tones urging the dawn to come
Make every word worth what it takes in turn
But I can't go on with my faith interrupted
How can I look the other way?
My faith interrupted
Youve shown me there is no other way out
Of all the times I've been disrespected You'd think it'd be no surprise Learning lessons, all the precious treasures Take all that you've got I'll take your ready hand with a ready blade Dead set to make you lie in the bed you've made Paid in full, I'll take it from your pride I don't know what you thought But you've gone past the line And you've got me wrong The time has come, your song has long been sung Brought down, you won't have long to go I'm not cutting a loss again You won't have long to go An hourglass of sand, and I'll be on time Inform the rest Run as fast as you can, hell's coming for you Try to strike and then slip away But I won't let you leave without feeling an equal pain You'll see, because I'll make you see Left in my council you'll know What it means to respect me Once I've caught you alone I'll teach you all you need to know Pray, once I've caught you alone That I teach you all you need to know You've got me wrong The time has come, your song has long been sung Brought down, you won't have long to go I'm not cutting a loss again You won't have long to go I wish I held desire solely to right this wrong Take careful tones urging the dawn to come Make every word worth what it takes in turn But I can't go on with my faith interrupted How can I look the other way? My faith interrupted Youve shown me there is no other way out Explain Request ×
