The Noose Emery

I lost my virginity when I knew there was nothing to lose
The scales tipped in front of me when I knew there was nothing to choose
Your words have stuck with me like a bass player singing the blues
But that's enough about me, I'm sure you'd like to tighten the noose

Bring the fire, let the wood burn away
Never cared because you won't have to stay
I'm tired, I'm tired of the flames
That only light the words you say

What can the world do with all of your faith
They can’t stand the truth so they turn it to hate
Righteous, not one, but they proclaim your fate
Wash in the blood or be crushed like the snake

Your words are deafening
The curses is what you sing
A judgment coming soon
A bride without a groom

We all will worship a God
The "Am that I Am"
Or made of our thoughts
The hope of this life seduces us all
To hold real truth and resist the fall
