Madder Mortem - Deadlands lyrics

All I ever wanted was a little discipline

A master's touch to give me some serenity within

Now I know there's no one there to save me from myself

All I ever needed was a minute of safe rest

A stronghold to give shelter from the pressure and the test

Now I know there's no one there to save me from myself

Standing cold in victory and longing for some sun

Begging still for mercy when the time for truth has come

Leave here. Turn home

We're all dry and dead and gone and not to breathe again

Leave here. Turn home

Rip the life and laughter out, rebuild it in my name

When the city rises, I will rule and I will blame

Now I know there's no one there to save me but myself

See me, fat and choking on the words that I remade

See my lover bleeding, there is beauty in the strain

Now I know there's no one there to save me from myself
