Song lyrics

Let him crave understanding,
Let him crave your wisdom,
Let him crave,
Let him be provoked,
Father, by self-control!

I'm just a Judas, looking for a silver line,
And tomorrow is still a step behind.
Hey, hey, drama, I'd love to be a waste of your time.
Oh no, thanks so much for wasting mine.
So hear me out.
Let's hear it for the damaged!
Who understands but the broken?
Developed in the arms of spite,
I'm all fucked up and I make it look good,
Adrenaline sight tonight.

I'm overthrown!
I'm over your throne!
I'm over it!

Sick, sickened, I'm sickening, I'm stricken by the fist,
Blessed are the fires that have burned me!
Listen to this, the lesson is, never underestimate the agony.
Death of the fool, birth of the cruel!

Remember how you spent the best part of forever
In a state of pure disease?
It was another thing altogether
To forget that you brought out the worst in me.
Hey, karma, you don't feel like I do,
You just wish you'd hate like I do.
We are the bitter, the maladjusted and wise,
Fighting off a generation too uptight,
We're all dressed up with nobody to kill,
The rhetoric stops tonight!

I'm overthrown!
I'm over your throne!
I'm over it!

Sick, sickened, I'm sickening, I'm stricken by the fist,
Blessed are the fires that have burned me!
Listen to this, the lesson is, never underestimate the agony.
Death of the fool, birth of the, birth of the cruel, yeah!

Now's not the time for denying,
Shifting the focus to scare,
Let's not forget we're all guilty,
All three dimensions polluted by earnest despair!

I'm overthrown!
I'm over your throne!
I'm overthrown!
I'm over your throne!
I'm over it!

Let him crave understanding,
Let him crave your wisdom,
Let him crave,
Let him be provoked,
Father, by self-control,
That he can see, look in the enemy in front of him,
Because cursed, not today, sucker,
Go back to hell where you belong!
