Land so barren even the vultures weep
Open eyes but I'm still asleep
As I roam and rot amongst the lowest of the low
One last vice is the final blow
They say the bigger they are, the harder they fall
Living proof and I've seen it all
But the hand of regret can't break the hand of deceit
I roll the dice again with all odds against me
Pave the path to misery for me
Open eyes but I'm still half asleep
Dread the day when the truth comes set me free
So you can take it or you can leave it
I put myself in this mess and I can't fuckin' escape
World keeps fucking spinnin' and it's out to take me
And I know another lie might be enough to break me
But the hand of regret can't break the hand of deceit
I roll the dice again with all odds against me
I burn
I burn with every fucking word you never spoke
In the end on your own bleeding tongue you choke
