Pearls Before the Swine

Lie in this state

Of perdition

Never to awake

It negates

An admission

Stricken by fate

There's no salvation it dwells in your bones

There's no remission this sickness it owns

Make love to denial her sober embrace

Nails they've embedded never to release

In madness we shall reign

Down out

In madness we shall reign

Hail Mary our divine

Littered souls across a great divide

In our obsession thou cast pearls before the swine

I numb it down

Heavens fleeting kiss envelops thee

It surrounds

So in vain we stab at the beast

Count the 12 times you step equal 12 times you fail

No abstination relapse tip the scale

As you swallow the hook

And you chew on the line

Choke on the sinker

In this sea of lies

In madness we shall reign

Hail Mary our divine

Littered souls across a great divide

In our obsession thou cast pearls before the swine

Broke vows and broken rosaries

Bind these rusted hopeless dreams

Broke vows and broken rosaries

Bind these rusted hands in prayer

Faith trust and love are mowed down lonely

In these killing fields

Deep in the throes of addiction

Now my blood's running black

My fixation is caught in it's clutches

As the sun sets on my soul

In endless twilight

It is eclipsed

Hail Mary our divine

Littered souls across a great divide

In our obsession thou cast pearls before the swine

Slowly we dance with temptation

Good intentions are sold

For the price of fool's gold and sedation

Take now this demon by it's hand

And slice it off

Hail Mary our divine

Littered souls across a great divide

In our obsession thou cast pearls before the swine

Take the ache beneath my bones

Peel the skin away and leave my body exposed

No grace awaits this broken soul
