Wishing Wells

Parkway Drive

4

I spoke a vow today and asked if God would come and play

I′ve dug a shallow hole for him to sleep

But I swear he just won't answer meI call on out, is he afraid? I′ll bury him down with the ones he keeps

And if the Devil is listening, I'll come for him as well

If I suspect he had a hand to play

And if I see his face in town, there's room for two down underground

Nothing′s gonna stop me ′til I'm done

Until I′m done

Until I'm done

Until I′m done

Until I'm done

′Cause tonight I'm killing gods

Killing gods

It's guilt and frustration, it′s everything between

The silence and the absence hitting home

Peripheral glances and the chasing of a sound

I never knew I′d miss until it's gone

So ask me how I′m coping, and I'll smile and tell you, "I′m just fine"

While down inside, I'm drowning in the fucking rain

Because when everything is empty and your heart is set to cave

Sometimes all you wish for is a place, is a place to place the blame

Burn your heaven, flood your hell

Drown you in your wishing wells

Burn your heaven, flood your hell

Damn you all ′cause tonight I'm killing gods

The incendiary shock wave, scorched earth policy

The devastation that only loss will leave

The chants and incantations of daily rituals

A subtle lapse in brutal honesty

So ask me how I'm coping, and I′ll smile and tell you, "I′m just fine"

While down inside, I'm screaming ′til I fucking bleed

Because when everyone's expendable and your heart can′t take the weight

The last thing that you wish for is the face, is the face to face the pain

Burn your heaven, flood your hell

Drown you in your wishing wells

Burn your heaven, flood your hell

Damn you all 'cause tonight I′m killing gods

I spoke a vow today and asked if God would come and play

'Cause I just wanna cut that fucker down

Face me, face me, face me, face me

Face me, face me, none survive

Face me, face me, none survive, go

None survive

The Devil and God have died inside me
