The Hands That Tied the Noose Lyrics

[Intro]
I was born with a noose around my neck and with each passing day I pray my feet suspend

[Chorus]
Silence, it's deafening
Cut the atmosphere that I've ingrained
Within my cold and rotten soul
There's only hell to call a home
Render this vessel six feet deep
And pray you kept me on receipt

[Verse 1]
We live in a house of wax
We melt and then collapse
So flammable, doused in gas
It can end at the strike of a match
Reveal the cracks
Now all that's left has smoldered into ash

[Verse 2]
Praise the mother of endless voids
Opens her mouth to produce white noise
Dark liquor eyes, she'll surely drown on what's lurking behind
Father Time has made a fool of me
Inside, the child dead in me
Fall into empty arms
A lack of heart to scar
Falter; failure of family
You're all as good as dead to me
Failure of family
You're all as good as dead to me
Failure of family

[Breakdown]
Let tragedy stain this slate
Make an orphan out of me
I am longing deep in my bones for a sense of total normality
But a cancer weaves through my soul attaching to my anatomy
Only red can save me now
Lather me in dread as cries resound
Execution emancipation
Tragedy incarnate, let me stain this slate

[Verse 3]
Praise the mother of endless voids
Opens her mouth to produce white noise
Dark liquor eyes, she'll surely drown on what's lurking behind
We live in a house of wax
We melt and then collapse
So flammable, doused in gas
It can end at the strike of a match
Reveal the cracks
Now all that's left has smoldered into ash
Make an orphan out of me

[Chorus]
Silence, it's deafening
Cut the atmosphere that I've ingrained
Within my cold and rotten soul
There's only hell to call a home
Let tragedy stain this slate
Make an orphan out of me, fuck
