I dismembered your idols
And you put the pieces back in place
Stuck them firmly in dirt
And sang a regimented praise
With my hands on the throat
I tried to strangle forth a pulse
Still I'm the one being choked
I turned blue in the face
I know some histories will fade
But yours won't be erased
Sing the praises
Refute the glories
You licked your hallowed wounds
And made sure that all could see
I covered mine with new skin
And you called it blasphemy
With my hands on the throat
I tried to strangle forth a pulse
Still I'm the one being choked
I turned blue in the face
I cracked my lips wide open
You stole a kiss for a taste
So sell it back
Clutched it too long
So sell it back
Made it through
And it's endured far too long
It's fouled the air
So sell it back
Made it through
And we've endured far too long
Left for dead
We're reborn
