Debts to Pay

Lyrics

[Intro: Skullkruncher13] I'm not a righteous man I'm not a holy man But I'll be damned if that damnation Leads my lamb astray [Refrain: Skullkruncher13] I reckon heaven ain't no place for angels anymore Hang up your worn-out halo Spread your withered wings and soar Just fake a leap of faith Forget how far from grace you've fallen Come find familiar faces down below among the Sodom [Verse 1: Skullkruncher13] In fact I've found that lookin' down's an act you may regret Unless the thought of fallin' to your death don't phase you yet You're gamblin' on your Lady Luck, already placed your bet That when you find that special girl, then you may wipe away your debt The false shepherd's steppin' onto our land Lookin' to stop her from drownin' in flame the mountains of man Instead, I bet she'll get it done with holy water And by the end I know she'll cleanse her filthy rotten Father But even if one door closes, I know an infinite open The Great Chain ain't even made yet and it's already been broken If you step through a tear I hope that you know where you're goin' 'Cause you just unlocked the cage, upon the Songbird's wings you're soarin' Beware the foreign hordes, everyone check your class You were born to solely play the role with which you have been caste Is that an inner monologue in your head? You're only chasin' your tail, soon you're gonna see yourself dead [Pre-Chorus: Andrea Storm Kaden] When you play dirty, you'll never win So just hold your breath, I'll hold your head and wash off your sins [Chorus: Andrea Storm Kaden & Skullkruncher13] Break the circle, shake off your chains Like a thundercloud, knock the sun right out and bring down the rain You may not be scared to meet your maker But this girl you're sure afraid of Break the circle, 'cause you got debts to pay So hold your breath and pray [Post-Chorus: Andrea Storm Kaden] Now watch your Eden become home to demons after all 'Cause grace is nothing but a place from which we're meant to fall So take a taste of your forbidden fruit, embrace yourself Now welcome home, I've made your sacred heaven into hell [Verse 2: Skullkruncher13] If thine alignment is with Vox Populi, pity Upon thy soul, thou demon devil in our white city I should know for with the high divines, I'm privy Hold your Bible tight, without the good book, I might outwit thee Are you salty, jealous of my vigor? I've an army, I need not touch my finger to a trigger You curse our fertile earth, holy and hallowed it may be I don't mean to open old wounds, how's an arrow to the knee? [Pre-Chorus: Skullkruncher13] I'm playin' dirty, but I can't win So I'll hold my breath, you hold my head and wash off my sins [Chorus: Skullkruncher13 & Andrea Storm Kaden] Break the circle, shake off your chains Like a thundercloud, knock the sun right out and bring down the rain You may not be scared to meet your maker But this girl you're sure afraid of Break the circle, 'cause you got debts to pay So hold your breath and- [Bridge: Andrea Storm Kaden] O Father, you've sowed your seeds The land, you've tilled If you could see La Vie en Rose, my looks could kill While time is flyin' by, I'm standin' still I'd ask you to dance, but I know you will [Chorus: Skullkruncher13 & Andrea Storm Kaden] Break the circle, shake off your chains Like a thundercloud, knock the sun right out and bring down the rain You may not be scared to meet your maker But this girl you're sure afraid of Break the circle, 'cause you got debts to pay So hold your breath and pray
