The Lord To Keep
• Written by Kanvas
Verse 1 (0:13)
Open up another pill bottle,
Broken up and your consciousness is thinning,
I see you as failing yet you see this as winning
But, I see that your soul is still truly wailing.\
Like the light was too bright, you still
Fight every night,
Like a blight constricts tight
Black plague, maggots consume
You.\
Somehow, you still find it fine
To peruse through,
All the things I hold close to my heart,
From the start, I could tell you\
Were up to no good,
From the looks you'd conceal,
To the signals thrown out that you thought,
I misunderstood. \
Hook (0:42)
Never forget, I know where you sleep and
Where you rest your head at night
The best places to creep,
The price is steep for what you have done,
And your soul I hope,
The Lord to keep.
Verse 2 (1:09)
I know which windows you don't like to lock,
I remember that key behind the Grandfather Clock,\
I have shopped for the best tools to get this job done,
But a drill will suffice, cause I like to have fun!\
You drink at night to help you feel,
And down those pills to help, but still\
You lack in character and voice as well,
I hate to embarrass ya
But you belong in Hell.\
I know Satan could use an accomplice or two,
You should know this is me makin' an offer to you\
Let me finish what should have already been over with,
Because I'm over this, and Hell needs another Bitch.\
You must be a blessing because I prayed every night
That you could never hurt another, infect them with your plight\
And it looks like He answered,
I will have my say tonight!\
So turn to your drugs to escape what is true,
Even though your capacity to learn is so skewed,\
Surrounded by knowledge, you choose to shut off,
Compounded by outlets preferred to real life.\
Hook 2 (2:05)
Never forget, I know where you sleep and
Where you rest your head at night
The best places to creep,
The price is steep for what you have done,
And your soul I hope,
The Lord to keep.
Outro (2:19)
I'll see you in the evening, when you just lay down to sleep
Just as you hit your nightlight ,
So you can not possibly see\
Me sneak up on you breathing ragged ready to fulfill
Another prescription for you,
This time, a no-refill option,
Entitled "Kill."\
