Urge Overkill - Litany lyrics
[Urge Overkill - Litany lyrics]
Everybody knows it's a parade
Of sullen souls
This is what we chose when
We paid before we go
Did you take his horse when
You changed an honest one
Did you smell his ghost when
You claimed his only son
What does it cost to defy
What was never shown
What cause and cost could deny
His blood and bones
All of that what it could've been
But it wouldn't be
That it couldn't win
Was it destiny
What it could've been
But it wouldn't be
Everybody knows he's
Afraid of dying alone
And his book is closed and his
Friends have all gone home
Now the kids are alone and the
Saints have all been stoned
What blessed cause could deny
His blood and bones
What does it cost to defy
What was never shown
Now the kids are lost and
The fires will never grow
Only then what it could've been
But it wouldn't be
All that it couldn't win
Was it destiny
What it could've been
But it wouldn't be
What worthy cause could define
The force of laws
What cause and loss could deny
His blood and bones
Only then what it could've been
But it wouldn't be
All that it couldn't win
Was it destiny
What it could've been
But it wouldn't be
Of sullen souls
This is what we chose when
We paid before we go
Did you take his horse when
You changed an honest one
Did you smell his ghost when
You claimed his only son
What does it cost to defy
What was never shown
What cause and cost could deny
His blood and bones
All of that what it could've been
But it wouldn't be
That it couldn't win
Was it destiny
What it could've been
But it wouldn't be
Everybody knows he's
Afraid of dying alone
And his book is closed and his
Friends have all gone home
Now the kids are alone and the
Saints have all been stoned
What blessed cause could deny
His blood and bones
What does it cost to defy
What was never shown
Now the kids are lost and
The fires will never grow
Only then what it could've been
But it wouldn't be
All that it couldn't win
Was it destiny
What it could've been
But it wouldn't be
What worthy cause could define
The force of laws
What cause and loss could deny
His blood and bones
Only then what it could've been
But it wouldn't be
All that it couldn't win
Was it destiny
What it could've been
But it wouldn't be
