Lyrics

0:05A jester of sorts you stand holding your courts
0:09Over minions on Capitol Hill
0:13In a bath full of blood I'm alone standing still
0:16Under God you can fire at will
0:20When the devil's angels come
0:24To take your life and lead you
0:26To the flames beneath
0:29Your headstone reads now
0:31Here lies the dead who was
0:34Hung by his head beneath us
0:36They're laying in their graves
0:39Damnation free for all
0:44A prodigal son can't undo what he's done
0:47A figurehead of capitol crime
0:49With a light shining down
0:53As you fall to your knees
0:54To repent would be nothing but lies
0:58When the devil's angels come
1:02To take your life and lead you
1:04To the flames beneath
1:07Your headstone reads now
1:09Here lies the dead who was
1:12Hung by his head beneath us
1:14They're laying in their graves
1:17Damnation free for all
1:38Dead beat six feet dead underground
1:43An eye for an eye only leaves us all blind
1:45Going once twice there goes your life
1:48When the devil's angels come
1:51To take your life and lead you
1:53To the flames beneath
1:56Your headstone reads now
1:59Here lies the dead who was
2:01Hung by his head beneath us
2:03They're laying in their graves
2:06Damnation free for all
A jester of sorts you stand holding your courts
Over minions on Capitol Hill
In a bath full of blood I'm alone standing still
Under God you can fire at will
When the devil's angels come
To take your life and lead you
To the flames beneath
Your headstone reads now
Here lies the dead who was
Hung by his head beneath us
They're laying in their graves
Damnation free for all
A prodigal son can't undo what he's done
A figurehead of capitol crime
With a light shining down
As you fall to your knees
To repent would be nothing but lies
When the devil's angels come
To take your life and lead you
To the flames beneath
Your headstone reads now
Here lies the dead who was
Hung by his head beneath us
They're laying in their graves
Damnation free for all
Dead beat six feet dead underground
An eye for an eye only leaves us all blind
Going once twice there goes your life
When the devil's angels come
To take your life and lead you
To the flames beneath
Your headstone reads now
Here lies the dead who was
Hung by his head beneath us
They're laying in their graves
Damnation free for all
