Let the Devil In

Beg the bee's forgiveness as it's falling from your sleeve

Watch it's guts pump poison into sting

Watch it reach completeness, see it fall asleep

Legs above fold in eternal dream

Oh, that calls to mind a joke, an off coloring

About these fools blindfolded, drugged and raped, and left laughing

They let the devil in, he brought in his pirate friends

They brought a hunger for blood and flesh, and bone, and skin

So teeth left chattering and tongues flexed to sting

Got dressed up in so many fancy things

Is it a waste of time? Please tell me if you mind

Me dipping into useless sentimentality

A rant on how things used to be when this shit was free

I answered my own question, I can hear the crickets yawning

But in the back pocket of a discarded pair of jeans

Is there a priceless ticket to the grandest opening?

So when the chariot arrives, you'd best enjoy the ride

'Cause when we get to heaven's gate we're not getting inside

Better beg forgiveness, better drop to knees

Better find your ticket before we join the bees
