Hangman

Hangman, why are we so cold?
The burning desire to have what we can't hold
Changing direction, hangman can't you see?

We hate for a reason
We sharpen our teeth
Strength and conviction
Heaven beneath

I've been forced to be
Return what's given to me
Hangman, they're all dying at your feet
In circles of fire, serpents of deceit

No admiration for what I have lost
In the absence of reason, I carry this cross
Carry this cross

In the sky I spit this venom
In your path of jaded wisdom
Now, hangman I see
It's you, it's me
The midnight sun
We are legion, we are one

Hangman, why are you so cold?
The burning desire to have what we can't hold
Hangman, they're all dying at your feet
In circles of fire, the serpents of deceit

We hate for a reason
We sharpen our teeth
Strength and conviction
Heaven beneath
