[Verse]
Oh, the things I've done, they would send you reeling
My scales tilt for others, but for me they're even
Do what they do and worse, but they're labeled heathens
So what's the toll on me and my way of being?

[Pre-Chorus]
Don't mistake my warmth for integrity
I speak with a twisted mouth
Half promises and treachery
I'd sink just to watch you drown

[Chorus]
But I'll praise and more
I'll leave my lore
I'll reap the fees when there's no skin on my bones
When heaven taunts my home, my home

These heavy hands hold so much dross
My spirit teems with aching thirst
And I know, I know
I know-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh

[Verse]
Hate how my fingers yearn for others ceilings
Holier than thou, my words mask my dealings
And I'm walking the earth the same way that Cain did
Jealous and hurting people that I'm around
I'm so devout
And I know that this ends with my grace in a casket
Can't pin the blame, this is all that I crafted
Now I'm breaking down

[Pre-Chorus]
Don't get too close to my river bed
A whisper of envy resounds
White streaks would have stained my flesh
If these were times when sins showed out

But I'll praise and more, I'll leave my lore
I'll reap the fees when there's no skin on my bones
When heaven taunts my home, my home
These heavy hands hold so much dross
My spirit teems with aching thirst
And I know, I know
I know-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh

[Bridge]
Where the bad ones go (where the bad ones go)
(hm-hmmmmm-hm, hm-hm, hm-hmmmmm-hm)
Don't send the dogs before (where the bad ones go)
I fill the drinks I poured (where the bad ones go)
Don't send the dogs before (where the bad ones go)
I save the face I tore
