Lyrics:
I was born with a set of yellow horns
And a mind that was filled with treason
Couldn't fly so I asked the gods why
But they never gave me no reason
So there I stayed in the coffin that I made
With the rest I never laid
Waiting for resurrection

And for a while I took it with a smile
While I shook away the bile
On the hand I was given
I spied with calibrated eyes
The deception and the lies
In the life I was livin'
Stripped away all the rot and the decay
And the blinders in the way
Of seeing all to clearly
Undermined all the agents of their crimes
And perpetuated lies
That they held so dearly

I sit alone in the land of the unknown
On a dead and broken throne
Waiting for resurrection

So it seems when you start to make a scene
You get tangled in the weeds
With the blind and barren
All the ghouls and the decorated fools
With their shiny little tools
Cut the skin you're wearin'
The price you pay when you strip it all away
So you're seein' clear as day
It ends the life you're livin'
40 years of chokin' back tears
'Til the storms break through
All the damns you've givin'
It's a hard way countin' prices that were paid
For the choices that you made
Waiting for resurrection

Was no time when it wasn't a crime
To declare yourself a heathen
This town will beat you to the ground
And will leave you barely breathin'
So here we stay with a debt we can't pay
Shovin' through another day
Waitin' for resurrection
