Slant lyrics

So here’s hope soft as a pillow
(Forced inside)
The mouth of an innocent slumber
(Smothered)

We have our hate, we’ll keep it in, we’ll keep it close
You know your place, you shut your mouth, you keep it closed

Just one more wound to lick
To break convalescence
It’s one more ten hour shift
For more joy to inject
One more grave to be dug
One more stone to erect

Now watch them grasp for oxygen
(Breath so sweet)
They always took it for grantеd
(No longer)

You had your air and now you’ll feel just what it’s like
To be without in thеse last moments of your life

And out of everyone you know
I’ll be the one you hate the most
I can be your Lucifer
I’ll make you feel so small
And out of everyone you know
I’ll be the one you worship most
I can be your Jesus Christ
It makes me feel so small
