MALEDICTION

The city of angels is filled with apparitions
Ghosts, musicians and politicians
All waiting to shake your hand
But they’ll stab you in the back baby
Just as quick as they can
They got attitudes
Cool moves and hidden agendas
Hear me when I say
Trust no one
Cause you just might live to regret it
Someday

Let us pray
I’m coming down from the pain
Those righteous lies I heard you say
But I refuse to speak your name in vain
I think its better that way
Too many words were said
This malediction is inside my head

Jesus wept
You made you’re bed
And now you’ll lie in it.
Each day goes by with my regret
I never wanted to believe you could
I can't pretend it’s all good
Too many words were said
This malediction is inside my head
Enshrined inside of my mind
Is how I bury my dead

How does it feel to be redeemed
After you lost your faith
You were pathetic
When you prayed
Just begging to be saved

The Judas left
Our resurrection
Had to be your death
I won’t forgive or forget
Too many words were said
This malediction is inside my head
Enshrined inside of my mind
Is how I bury my dead

How does it feel to be redeemed
After you lost your faith
You were pathetic
When you prayed
Just begging to be saved

I’ll never split that piece of wood
Never lift that stone
But I will be the one
Who collects that pound of flesh
You owe…me
