The Family Ruin lyrics

She finds him by the fire...
His claws of God are dripping from his crimes
He beckons her, "Sweet daughter..."
The voice that once avenged her younger life

He's got the voice of a con,
The same one,
Who cut down in the name of his God,
Who took on the robe of a judge,
Without a license to kill without cause,
He's not worth it,
He's not worth it,
He's not worth it
Remember what he did that made you question
all the words he said

From the book, the same book,
That's reeling you home
after so many years of silence

And the daughter watches father...
As he sleeps and dreams she brings the knife to light
Cuz she knows he can't go farther,
And he'll never wake to see his daughter cry
Don't lose control or you will learn
To go back, to this time, and rewrite your thought

Because you're about to choose
what you called so ironic
It's ironic, it's ironic that you're
contemplating murder while
I'm educating you with mercy
You say you want, you say you want,
The means to believe,
but don't change who you are,
Because who you are is who
I made you to discover Me

The steel marries the skin
No, it's not worth it, it's not worth it
I cut him down, I cut him down
You didn't have to fall, it's your fault
It's your fault, you lost control
And now you long to go back
and rewrite your thought
But I won't let you slip away
Not this time, not this time
This time you're gonna learn
what it means to receive the very mercy
That you denied, when you denied,
The means to believe,
I'll keep feeding you the poof that you need
But you spit it out to further your doubt

And now he can't go farther,
Because he'll never wait to see his daughter cry
