Rest For The Wicked

Safe behind another turned up glass of empty time

I put my hand on the bottle

And start my day

Run and hide

from dirty deeds that pleased the moment’s eyes

I keep my hand on the throttle

But there's no escape

Searching for my way through the dark

But I’m feeling like I’m back at the start

And for all the sins that I can’t confess

For all the pain/rage that ain’t left me yet

I need some peace in my heart

A little rest for the wicked

I’ll atone

Tally up the blame I bare alone

And I’ll walk through the fire

If it’s what I owe

Still I try

To find a life that I could recognize

But I’m willing to follow

Just take me home

Searching for my way through the dark

But I’m feeling like I’m back at the start

And for all the sins that I can’t confess

For all the pain/rage that ain’t left me yet

I need some peace in my heart

A little rest for the wicked

Fear sheds and falls all around me

Show me the road

I’ll take it as far as it goes

I got nothing but time

No one to please

And nothing to change my mind

I’m finally home

Searching for my way through the dark

But I’m feeling like I’m back at the start

And for all the sins that I can’t confess

For all the pain/rage that ain’t left me yet

I need some peace in my heart

A little rest for the wicked
