[Verse 1: Joe Horton]
[Hook]
Tattoo the white whale
Across my backside
Only bit once
But it's enough to keep me alive
Tattoo the white whale
Across my backside
If I live to see the next sun
It's because he died
[Verse 2: Kristoff Krane]
I'm talking sacred as the night
That laid my body on the stone slab
Made me choose between whether
I'm staying here
Or going back
Ringing in my ear drums
Running out of breath
Reason disappears
Spirit rising from my chest
Poking at my face
Making it quite clear
There's always blood to sacrifice
In places they don't fight fair
Suit yourself soldier
Training camp is almost done
Now finish washing up your brain
Grab the remote and load your gun
I refuse to refill a prescription I don't need
Or fulfill the duties of some shoes I don't fit in
The old me's addicted
To the new world order
But the new me's withdrawing
From the old world vision
Plug the flood
From the perspective of a rain drop
Hung to dry, dead by a thread
Coming out our clothes
It's evident we aren't cut from the same cloth
Learning how to cope with chaos and we're getting' close
[Hook]
Tattoo the white whale
Across my backside
Only bit once
But it's enough to keep me alive
Tattoo the white whale
Across my backside
If I live to see the next sun
It's because he died
