Lyrics Slant - Sprain

Slant

So here’s hope soft as a pillow
Forced inside
The mouth of an innocent slumber
Smothered
We have our hate
We’ll keep it in
We’ll keep it close
You know your place
You shut your mouth
You keep it closed
Just one more wound to lick
To break convalescence
It’s one more ten hour shift
For more joy to inject
One more grave to be dug
One more stone to erect
Now watch them grasp for oxygen
Breath so sweet
They always took it for grantd
No longer
You had your air
And now you’ll feel just what it’s like
To be without
In thse last moments of your life
And out of everyone you know
I’ll be the one you hate the most
I can be your Lucifer
I’ll make you feel so small
And out of everyone you know
I’ll be the one you worship most
I can be your Jesus Christ
It makes me feel so small
