A Pound Of Flesh

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.

Bloodshot on the panicked eye

Too gone for resolution

Too late for the gallant try

Or to find his own solution

Pray save us or to buy the plan, vengeance is my name

Too deep for a drowning man too deep to call him sane

In the farthest place from you

Where blood drips through your hands

The action deafens every word

That runs your master plan

[Chorus:]

Higher, go higher

Know you've paid for the best

Higher, go higher

Can't pay in cash, take a pound of your flesh

Turned out where you're left to die

Turned into this destruction

Set free where you only fly

To a promised resurrection

Pray save me, or to find a way, bathing in my blame

Tapped out but he has to pay, vengeance is my name

In the closest place to you

Where water fills your hands

Your thirst is gone with every taste

That fuels your master plan

[Chorus:]

Higher, go higher

Know you've paid for the best

Higher, go higher

Pay with your love, or a pound of your flesh

Don't know you're fucking with the best

All the competition laid to rest

Humble as you crawl out of the mess

One by one I count my pounds of flesh
