The Writ lyrics

The way I feel is the way I am

I wished I'd walked before I started to run to you

Just to you

What kind of people do you think we are?

Another joker who's a rock 'n' roll star for you

Just for you

The fateful image of another man

The endless ocean of emotion I swam for you

Yeah for you

Your son Chip was layin' down on the floor

I wish the bullet entered my writing wall with you

Yeah with you

Are you metal? Are you man?

You've changed a lot since you began

Yeah began

Ladies digging gold from you

Will they still dig now you're through

Yea you're through

You bought and sold me with your lying words

The voices in the dark that you never heard came through

Yeah, came through

Your fallen phalic got dismembered 'n god

A poisoned father with his poisonous his son that's you

Yeah that's you

I beg you please don't let it get any worse

The anger I once had has turned to a curse on you

Yeah curse you

All of the promises that never came true

You're gonna get what is coming to you that's due

Ah that's due

Are you Satan? Are you man?

You've changed a lot since it began

It began

Vultures sucking gold from you

Will they still suck now you're through?

(Cats... Rats...)

The search is on so you just better run

And find yourself another way

Rob the dead they don't feel a thing

Keep the living for another day

(Rats... Rat...)

You are nonentity, you have no destiny

You are a figment of a thing unknown

A mantle picture of a stolen soul

A fornication of your golden throne

A smiling face it means the world to me, yeah

So tired of sadness and of misery, yeah

My life it started some time ago

Where it will end I don't know

I thought I was so good

I thought I was far

I feel my world's been torn apart

But everything is gonna work out fine, yeah

If it don't I think I'll lose my mind, yeah

I know I know I know Yeah yeah I know

Listen to me while I sing this song

You might just think the words are wrong

Too many people advising me

But they don't know what my eyes see

But everything is gonna work out fine, yeah

If it don't I feel I'll blow my mind, yeah
