So be what you will, know what you are
No worse a kind than animal man
For who better snake than serpent itself?
(Who knows of nothing else)

Reveal to me now all that is real
I will deny, I will deny all
This [bad word] may be yours
I refuse it as mine

Not for the ones who love the lies, the severed ties
Mine’s a critical condition
Lost hopes are carried away
as though they never did stay
Oh please, is there nothing, is there nothing left for those who yearn?

Nothing to ease this pain, I can’t release this shame
It’s all the same – I am still here

Spoken for, occupied, not to be had
I will deny, I will deny all
This [bad word] may be yours
I refuse it as mine

(I wait on)
Fall from earth and land
Through these hands
Tracing time within this time within this time

(I wait on)
Fall from earth and land
Through these hands
Tracing time within this time within this time

(I wait on)
Nothing to ease this pain, I can’t release this shame
(I wait on)
This [bad word] may be yours, I refuse it as mine
(I wait on)
I will deny, I will deny all
(I wait on)
Not for the ones who love the lies, the severed ties
