Devin Townsend
Your Beloved Scapegoat
[Verse 1]
So the idol you preached
Has turned to nothing
It was making your way
Through the dust when searching
You never thought
It would give you up
Your beloved scapegoat
You never thought
It would interrupt
Your sweet escape
[Pre-Chorus]
Those were the times when
You cranked it all up
You soared for the moment
Without wings to lift up
[Chorus]
I'm crossing that line with a state of mind
One more night missed out
As if I was blind to the fact, it won't wait
Won't you carry me home?
[Verse 2]
Did you do it all for nothing
Or did it make you
Sure of something
No matter the subjection
Or the mystery of life
Was just put on hold
You will always treasure the things
That reject you and possess you
Breeding new life through
The eyes of the insane
And it all comes down to you
[Pre-Chorus]
Those were the times when
You cranked it all up
You soared for the moment
Without wings to lift up
But tonight
[Chorus]
I'm crossing that line with a state of mind
One more night missed out
As if I was blind to the fact, it won't wait
Won't you carry me home?
[Bridge]
Nothing can touch such a mind in distress
Won't you find another bright solution
Crossing that river, get away with what's left
Eternally stuck in the realm of confusion
[Chorus]
But tonight
I'm crossing that line with a state of mind
One more night missed out
As if I was blind to the fact, it won't wait
Won't you carry me home?
I'm crossing that line with a state of mind
One more night missed out
As if I was blind to the fact, it won't wait
Won't you carry me home
Carry me...
