Verse 1
Teeth on the curb of another dead dream
I bled faith till the bones went clean
You preached love with a loaded gun
Halo rusted in the godless sun
Breath tastes like kerosene
Heart’s a rusted guillotine
Every promise that you ever made
Was gasoline in the mess you made
Pre-Chorus
I clawed my way through the static and lies
You turned my heaven into vultures and flies
Chorus
Hell will take me now
I’m done with begging the sky
No angels coming down
Let the fires swallow the lies
I won’t bow, I won’t break, I won’t drown
If this is all that I am allowed
Then light the match and burn it out
Hell will take me now
Verse 2
You sewed my mouth with silver threads
Sold my soul just to keep me fed
Every scar is a crooked hymn
Every sin is a requiem
You wear your cross like a fashion piece
A crown of thorns made of plastic peace
Your holy war is a circus show
Blood on your hands that you’ll never own
Pre-Chorus
I tore the mask from the face of your truth
All I saw staring back was you
Chorus
Hell will take me now
I’m done with begging the sky
No angels coming
Let the fires swallow the lies
I won’t bow, I won’t break, I won’t drown
If this is all that I am allowed
Then light the match and burn it out
Hell will take me now
Verse
I wore my knees to the bone
Praying to statues of dust
I tied my hope to a ghost
And watched it crumble to rust
Pre-Chorus
I lit a match in the rain
Still, I was dying for light
If there’s a god in the storm
He never answered my cries
Chorus
Hell will take me now
I’m done with begging the sky
No angels coming
Let the fires swallow the lies
I won’t bow, I won’t break, I won’t drown
If this is all that I am allowed
Then light the match and burn it out
Hell will take me now
Bridge
If there’s a heaven above me
It locked the gates long ago
So let the devils that love me
Crown me in embers and smoke
Final Chorus
Hell will take me now
I’m done with begging the sky
No angels coming
No more believing their lies
If I’m forsaken
I’ll turn this fall into flight
Hell will take me now
