Midnight Wagon - Slithis II

A lie has enough force to keep me awake at night
A tablet of acid, a roofie, and a bloody knife
That knife was the same one that you stuck in my back
A waking nightmare, a chokehold, a drug-induced heart attack

I don't wanna hear proverbs
Slip from a serpent's tongue
I don't wanna hear whispers
From the ghosts that you have wronged

A craven's resource is a wall to crawl behind
Hatred, loathing, as the spiders weave down your spine
You coated your lips in the poison that you've found
So I'll throw you in and wait 'til you drown, drown, drown

And you'll scream
Bloody murder until you can't no more
And I'll wait
For your body to wash up on the shore
And I'll find
A lifeless coward that's yet to leave their mark
And I hope
You will never finish what you've tried to start

I don't wanna hear proverbs
Slip from a serpent's tongue
I don't wanna hear whispers
From the ghosts that you have wronged
I don't wanna hear fables
Fall from dishonored tongues
I don't wanna hear martyrs
Sing your dying psalms
Your dying psalms
