Backslider

(album: In The Arms Of God - 2005)

Some people know the order, but they're hard to find
Some people roll you over and then they blow your mind
Some have the will to occupy
Some people can't remember, but that's nothing new
Some people kill for loving including me and you
But I guarantee your time is due
I guarantee your time is due

Black fire! Illuminate the chosen few
Liars assassinate what's come for you

Distant winds spread salvation and beat you down with shame
Once redeemed is gone forever never be unchained
The future steals what once remained
Some people speak the truth now: when there's no one else to blame
Then they try to beat you down boy if you don't do the same
Choose me or choose eternal flame
Choose me or choose eternal flame

Black fire! Illuminate the chosen few
Liars assassinate what's come for you

Beware Backslider
You need to know just why we were, 'cause I might be losing my mind

Deception of your mind
Chasing what was once divine
Onward for the truth absurd
I think we finally know just why we were...
Alone...
Alone...
Alone...

Nobody knows the answer; they never question why
And blind faith will lead you nowhere it happens every time
Spirit shines and now it's time to die
Lights dim and you can't remember, you pray you're homeward bound
Kill the dream forget the memories that were so profound
The revolution dies with out a sound
The revolution dies with out a sound

Black fire! Illuminate the chosen few
Liars assassinate what's come for you

Beware Backslider
You need to know, just why we were 'cause soon you'll be losing your mind
