lyrics

In a world of Stockholm Saints
I have this Sinners Syndrome
Coursing through my veins

If something's in there
Knock twice
Cast off your shell
And walk into the light

No Bark
No Bite
Only the gnashing of false teeth
Against dying light

Take my ribs
Take my heart
Take my bones
All I'm asking
Is for some proof I'm not here
All alone

If there's something in there
Knock twice
Cast off your skin
And walk into the Night
There's nothing in there
But loaded dice
Heaven and Hell
Are Equally Bright

Letters sent
To Latter Saints
What good is a cure for an unknowable pain?
Letters sent
To Latter Saints
What good is a cure with one foot in the grave?

You destroy what You can't control

All I feel is Nothing
And to Nothing
We'll Return
Life leaves us empty
But in death
We'll be whole
