Crosscheck - ALTAR Lyrics




I am the knife under the table
Go for the throat, make sure it's fatal

Face down
On the ground
Laying face down on the ground
Bloodied, bowed
Laying face down on the ground

You said that we'd be found
How well I know you know
Falsified your vows
Always taking more than we allow
And you will let us down
At least I know that now
You will leave us face down on the ground

I'll use the noose
Can't keep taking what I'm given
I'll use the noose
Won't be forced into submission

I am the knife under the table
God won't save you

Save me from you
I can't walk away
White-hot, renewed
Hands tied either way

I broke your fall

Said you'd take the pain away
If I got on my knees to pray
Close your eyes, listen, obey
But you left me face down

In a permanent bow
You said you were helping me up
But I can't slip from the chains you wound
I put my faith in your crown
The spirit is bloody now
If we're made to kneel in the dirt
We can't help but swallow it down

Who can save me now

We broke our homes, buried the bones
Forcing the sun to set on you
We were alone, sat at your throne
And now you want to claim the fuse

Don't shut the light

I want to watch it drain from your eyes
