fire down below

alkaline trio

it's been a lifetime since i last confessed to you

and i've had little trouble concealing the truth

i've been nothing but lies and deceitful

here's the church open the people there for me

apologies have taken on a whole new meaning now

you've waited your whole life for this

beg for mercy and forgiveness

nothing up above but darkness

and fire down below

me and my friends waiting on your soul

it's been a long time since i've last had words with you

not sure what i see now to tell you the truth

about this feeling weighing heavily

on my mind and chest cavity

don't pray for me one day you'll find

i'm sleeping in my urn feeling just fine

you've waited your whole life for this

beg for mercy and forgiveness

nothing up above but darkness

and fire down below

me and my friends waiting on your soul

fix me a drink

tell me a story

take my head off

these gut wrenching words

made my mistakes

my guilt admissions

please pass a plate

and the ammunition

you've waited your whole life for this

beg for mercy and forgiveness

nothing up above but darkness

and fire down below

me and my friends waiting on your soul

you've waited your whole life for this

beg for mercy and forgiveness

nothing up above but darkness

and fire down below

me and my friends waiting on your soul

you've waited your whole life for this
