Strange Gods - Inner Circle Lyrics

Misguided righteousness it tears away the person that I am
With every selfish prayer, I'm pressed against the consequence of sin
Born to die... correct the course that I've been damned to
Who am I? A question that these legs can't run from

I don't want to be born again
I don't want to erase my sins
I don't want to be born again
I don't want to erase my sins

The earthly hand that picked me up
Was more to me than all I had known
Bloody fists against the gates
They'll never open up for me

I don't want to be born again
I don't want to erase my sins

Poisoned words fall from the mouths of men with worse intentions
The curse of gods above, they prey upon our low existence
Cast them off... Abandon all the hope that heaven promised
Nothing left... but empty words and ancient books their pages burn

All alone we bend beneath the weight of expectation
Life itself is nothing more than holy indiscretion

Course correct
This life it leads me nowhere
Answers left
That reach beyond my death

Answers left beyond my death will keep me always searching
Course correct, our path not set, a writhing, empty future

Course correct
This life it leads me nowhere
Answers left
That reach beyond my death

Course correct
This life it leads me nowhere
Answers left
That reach beyond my death
