Exile, my rite of passage
My skeletons have left me for dead
I am an exile, I'm a pariah
I'm the remains of a never good man
What I've done and all I've created
Will be gone, while treasured my works
I know my flaws are worthy convictions
To seal my fate, they've come for my head
They've come for the debt
Sovereign sense of desire
My riches are built from arrears
My time is coming, my guilt is rising
I am surrounded and drowned by the fear
What I've done and all I've created
Will be gone, while treasured my works
I know my flaws are worthy convictions
To seal my fate, they've come for my head
So summon your God to secure my damnation
And send me down, I know what I am
A pariah and clod of worthless pretension
Revered by none, they've come for my head
They've come for the debt
You search for darkness but in the light
You fight with worlds in a play from a stage
You're no God
So summon your God to secure my damnation
And send me down, I know what I am
A pariah and clod of worthless pretension
Revered by none, who come for my head
My head
