If you're planning your escape
If you're scheming your release
If you're arranging your departure
From the mark of the beast
I've been searching through my notebooks
I've been checking through my heart
I've been building in my basement
I've been trying to do my part

(Here we go)
It's alright doctor
It's only just my soul
It's alright doctor
Ah you can fill that hole
It's alright doctor

I see people faint from fear
I see people beat their breast
I hear the last gasp and the
Death rattle in the corpse of the west
If you're looking for a refuge
A lifeboat in the sea
She could be your finest lover
Or a horror that you flee

And I want this hope to grab me
Burn this dross with fire
Gonna mix gasoline and flames
Mix one-hundred proof aching and one-hundred proof desire
I'm gonna drive this text
To this field of deeds
I'm gonna plow a deep and gapping wound
In the dry ground of your needs
