If the road to hell was paved with good intentions
maybe the way to brighter days involve the loss of moral inhibitions
if its the greater darkness that brings out the light,
a small, burning ember would do me just fine
when your heart and mind's a dartboard,
and you're surrounded at all sides,
maybe its unwise to stick to your guns
but tonight it feels so right
to just shoot my fucking mouth off,
I bit lead too long, too hard,
and such a noble, sacred target
now watch it blow apart
here we rape the sacred by
moshing with every popular perspective
subverting every unquestioned tradition
undermining every specialized authority
and end by re-evaluating our mission
my small, burning ember
tonight you feel so right
now I watch you blow apart
a thousand points of light...
farewell good intentions
now I'm on my way
right on into the darkest shadow
because I lost my sight today.
