Effigy

Where I stand, the winds have always blown
Dust to sand, the way it always gone
All that matter, is that I don't wanna come home
What I miss isn't this
I didn't wonder
We'll never change, never could
At least I'll take the lie away to remain, no return
Where I've been in the prison
I've been shown
To burn again, to live it on and on
All these plans are left with all those bones
All of this I won't miss
I didn't want it
I never changed, never could
At least I take the lie away
No remains, no one should
Left with me in effigy
I won't wait, I won't see straight for another year on
Shout out for hate, it's a police state
I don't want a way out
No you don't wanna catch me
Now that I got in too deep
I don't want an apology
I want an effigy
Here I stand, the rest has all been shown
When it comes to this, another miss
I didn't want it
We'll never change, never could
At least I'll take the lie away
No remains, no one should
Left with me in effigy
I won't wait, I won't see straight for another year on
Shout out for hate, it's a police state
I don't want a way out
Know you don't wanna catch me
Now that I got in too deep
I don't want an apology
I want an effigy.
