Systems & Stories - Shallow Grave

You
You are the void
You are the architect
Of bitterness, blame, and defeat
I saw your face
But I knew a different name
Imposter
Seal my fate
Show me how to break me open
Show me how the sinner meets his maker
Take my shame
Take my soul
Lay me to rest with the criminals I know best
Take my life
Tear it down
Lay me to rest in a shallow grave, somewhere they'll never find my bones
Go and show the world the evil that you've known
Rescue yourself from the pain
Send out a signal distress with no hope
Cover reality's stain
Cast me aside and care for your heart
Cuz I'm only here to break it apart
Wait for the science to prove itself out
Whisper your truths, and stave off your doubts
Show me how to break me open
Show me how the sinner meets his maker
Take my shame
Take my soul
Lay me to rest with the criminals I know best
Take my life
Tear it down
Lay me to rest in a shallow grave, somewhere they'll never find my bones
