Heretic Pride (Jordan Lake Sessions Volume 1)

Lyrics

[Verse] Well they come and pull me from my house And they drag my body through the streets And the sun's so hot I think I'll catch fire and burn up In the summer air so moist and sweet And the people all come out to cheer Rocks in the pathway break my skin And there's honeysuckle on the faint breeze today With every breath I'm drawing in I want to cry out But I don't scream and I don't shout And I feel so proud to be alive And I feel so proud when the reckoning arrives The crowds grow denser by the second As we near the center of the town And they dig a trench right in the main square right there And they pick me up and throw me down And I start laughing like a child And I mark their faces one by one I mark their faces one by one Transfiguration's gonna come for me at last And I will burn hotter than the sun I waited so long and now I taste jasmine on my tongue And I feel so proud to be alive And I feel so proud when the reckoning arrives [Outro] Hahaha Wow, what happened? Nothing, it was just awesome I was, I was better
