Canaanite

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

And then the pain stops

There's a motherfuckin' reason that I thrive in the dark

There's a reason anger dwells inside the noblest hearts

Long since removed from everything I had to lose

The fire's spreading so you better make your fuckin' move

All you see was built with fists, blood, and an iron spine

Best bet if they couldn't keep up, they were left behind

So get to steppin' punk - you're outnumbered me to none

I have come to crush you all with the hate I've become

The quiet ones are hiding the darkest nightmares

I don't want to belong, I just want to be gone - so long

Lay me down in the earth, so that nothing will hurt

No good of himself does a listener hear

Speak of the devil and he's sure to appear

The choking seeds, on which we feed

Have all but caused our throats to bleed

I don't want to belong, I just want to be gone - so long

Lay me down in the earth, so that nothing will hurt (goodnight, goodbye)

I don't want to be strong, I don't care if I'm wrong (this ghost, this life)

Everything is a lie, everybody should die

A light shineth in darkness, and the darkness swallowed it whole

Truth in the tenet and dust in the fucking well

Royals are left with no stories to tell

With the essence of all that was virtuous lost

No one is chosen to serve as a God

I don't want to belong, I just want to be gone - so long

Lay me down in the earth, so that nothing will hurt (goodnight, goodbye)

I don't want to be strong, I don't care if I'm wrong (this ghost, this life)

Everything is a lie, everybody should die

And then the pain stops
