Pledge Wore Thin

Hot Water Music · Exister [2012]

Gotta get gone like a bat on a mission

Out of this hell not enough sedition

Give 'em all you got and you better believe they'll walk



All over you, leaving smoke and ashes and

Burning up faith with their "fine intentions."

A "noble cause" can bend as fast as the law



You're pledge wore thin

Now we're all in



Gotta get gone, get stable, steady

I'd rather walk slow than to run with a cut throat

Give 'em all you got and you better believe they'll talk



All about you breaking skin on your back

It's just a little dagger; it's just a little blade, right?

But there'll be more and they don't bend at all



You're pledge wore thin

Now we're all in

[x2]



And time must mend

Truth must win

And we're all ears



Savor fever, savor the sin

Bleed for lessons and don't stop to fall into

Sanctimony, a self-righteous story, condemned and surely

Holier than thou while screaming freedom

Far, far away from the truth condition



Your pledge wore thin

Now we're all in

[x2]



And time must mend

Truth must win

And we're all ears
