lyrics

Gather me a sizable crowd
Remove the blindfolds
Let them witness something better

Call out the elders
They need to hear the truth
I'm not new, just out of the blue

A proud lion relishing his coliseum
I'm burning the trash
and flooding the streets with foreign ash

Lambs eagerly licking their wounds
Something for nothing
The cycle is stunning

I pulled off the red
The carpet is merely your donations in blood

This is the high you get high to justify
A portrait painted by a God devoid of eyes

CHORUS

Yeah baby I'm a vertebrate on call
And I'm willing to show my bones if you promise not to scrape the walls

Look to your right. You know he's never gonna be me
Now the other right. Her children now bear my name by some judge's decree

When I came here, I had a drink
First the lips, then the tongue and down into the abyss
What came next made me think
That little deer never sold herself as a prospective kiss

Thy name features not on your beloved stepping stone
You need three or more to be allowed in the open air catacombs

In by myself
While you're out asking for assistance
No pleb or web shall make me walk the path of least resistance

Read the background
You'll learn you didn't make the credits roll at all

Don't look up, I'll be looking down
This stare still spells pity

"He was sent to paralyze
To shed you of your meaningless, undeserving lives
The culmination of two decade's worth of upswing
Now hear hear, the royal cadence of the King:"

CHORUS

Yeah baby I'm a vertebrate on call
And I'm willing to show my bones if you promise not to scrape the walls

Look to your right. You know he's never gonna be me
Now the other right. Her children now bear my name by some judge's decree
