Lyrics Crossing The Rubicon - The Human Abstract

Crossing The Rubicon

Of all the times I’ve been disrespected
You’d think it’d be no surprise
Learning lessons, all the precious treasures
Take all that you’ve got
I’ll take your ready hand with a ready blade
I’m dead-set to make you lie in the bed you’ve made
Paid in full, Take it from your pride
I don’t know just what you thought
But you’ve gone past the line
And you’ve got me wrong
The time has come, your song has long been sung
Brought down, brought down;
you won’t have long to go
I’m not cutting a loss again, you won’t have long to go
An hourglass of sand
And I’ll be on time, inform the rest
So run as fast as you can
Hell’s coming for you
Try to strike and then slip away
But I won’t let you leave without feeling an equal pain
You’ll see, because I’ll make you see
Left in my council you’ll know what it means to respect me
Once I’ve caught you alone, teach you all you need to know
Pray, once I’ve caught you alone
Teach you all you need to know
The time has come, your song has long been sung
Brought down, brought down;
you won’t have long to go
I’m not cutting a loss again, you won’t have long to go
I wish I held desire solely to right this wrong
Take careful tones urging the dawn to come
Make every word worth what it takes in turn
I can’t go on, with my faith interrupted
I can’t go on, with my faith interrupted
How can I look the other way?
My faith interrupted
You’ve shown me there is no other way
Out
Other way out
