Lyrics

I've forgotten the name of the father
Forgotten the name of the son
When I look to their use of the holy ghost
I think they should fear what's to come
I've invited the sins of the flesh, I've decidedly taken them in
When I look to my soul, I don't find it a hole
But I admit it looks a bit thin

In this united state

I have stolen the bread from the alter
I have tempted the fingers of fate
I have spit on the grave of the land of the brave
And look to a new united state
I have pulled the wings off of remembrance
I have since set alight to the past
No more wet in these eyes for the lazy
Their head in the sand as the world kicks their ass

In this united..

Through the cinders I since the horizon
Through the embers the body has stirred
The end of the world having since come
And gone without whispering so much as a word
As the sun sends the century packing
As the dawn threatens not a clean slate
No where, no way to get back
And no chance of crashing the gate

Guess you'll have to take a part in your own fate
I've bled a fortune worth of lies
I've caused a wealth of heartfelt pain
I stand here cold with searing eyes
Look to the sky to bring the rain
I hold my hoping out of sight
I hold my doubt between my teeth
The years catching up to the right
The truth or lie within belief
