The Rich Man

Somehow, I think I’m going home

Even though my friends can’t reach me

I don’t know how I ended up alone

All I know is you can’t save me

They only asked us to believe

They only wanted us to follow

I think I’m old enough to see

I think I’m going home tomorrow

I believe in…

Sinners and hypocrites

Burning in the desert for a rich man

Liars and lunatics

Lead us to the slaughter for our last stand

Killers and idiots

Dying in the desert for a rich man

Sinners and hypocrites

Gather us together for the master plan

I didn’t bother with my faith

How will my family recognize it?

Somehow, I think I’m going home

But I still can’t comprehend it

I know I don’t want to die

But I know dying will not end it

I believe in…

Sinners and hypocrites

Burning in the desert for a rich man

Liars and lunatics

Lead us to the slaughter for our last stand

Killers and idiots

Dying in the desert for a rich man

Sinners and hypocrites

Gather us together for the bastards

I know the truth is all a lie,

My skin is cracking on my lips

I don’t pretend that I can understand

Why we are doing this

My heart has bled a thousand times,

How will I live with what we’ve done?

The only comfort is the knowledge

That I’m not the only one

Why am I here?

What did I do?

Why?
