recuse myself

i've heard the devil speak

speak through a man

and i found them listening

i've seen the holy take

take to a fool

and i've seen them following

long enough to know

i fall

somewhere outside it all

let me recuse myself

lose myself

excuse myself from your world

recuse myself

lose myself

excuse myself from your world

i've felt the weight of death

i've held the hand

and i've tread a fading line

i'm not afraid to go

and still i am

i've sung the battle cry

long enough to know

i fall

somewhere outside it all

let me recuse myself

lose myself

excuse myself from your world

recuse myself

lose myself

excuse myself from your world

i never saw myself inside your shadow

but now i dig to pull myself out of your grave

i don't know where i stand

i just can't meet your demands

time to find my way out

let me recuse myself

lose myself

excuse myself from your world

from your world
