Songtexte: Anacrusis. Release.

For forever living in
For forever dying in
The shadow of a killing cross
Born and held accountable

Sworn to bear the burden now
For sinful nails driven deep

But I can't be responsible
For having done the unthinkable
And won't
No, I won't play that role

For forever living in
For forever dying in
The ashes of a smoldering cross
Born and held accountable

Sworn to bear the burden now
For shameful hands which held the flame

But I can't be responsible
For changing the unchangeable
And won't
Don't, to ourselves we owe release

With rusted chains
We incarcerate and cage ourselves
Cease
We patronize and crucify and kill ourselves

We seduce the past
And draw it close
And hold it tight
And never let it go

Until we hurt ourselves
And hate ourselves
And blame ourselves again, again

No, we can't be responsible
For bearing the unbearable
And won't
Don't, to ourselves we owe release

With rusted chains
We incarcerate and cage ourselves
Cease
We patronize and crucify and kill ourselves

We seduce the past
And draw it close
And hold it tight
And never let it go

Until we hurt ourselves
And hate ourselves
And blame ourselves again, again
