Dust To Dust

(album: Orphans - 2019)

I had to go blind to truly see
What was right in front of me
I'm a fool for thinking there was a shot
But the game was rigged right from the start
Still I need to play, to go along

See, karma's a bitch
But she's not your dog
When you least expect
She'll turn around (Turn around)
When you look the other way
She's bound to bite (Bound to bite)
All it takes is a second
To fall in a trap
Absent choice, I'm on a one-way path

Racing to the break
I will leave nothing behind

Take your needles
Stick them in your arms
Pull my limbs 'til you tear them apart
Break my bones, hell, crush my skull
You'll never take my soul
Take my life but you'll never take my soul

Woke up to flies buzzing around
To the warm touch of your blood
And a body, your body indeed
The disease is spreading, tick tock
Is there still enough time to play God?

Racing to the break
I will leave nothing behind
Ashes cross my path
I ignite, I ignite

Take your needles
Stick them in your arms
Pull my limbs 'til you tear them apart
Break my bones, hell, crush my skull
You'll never take my soul
Take my life but you'll never take my soul
