Fail Me (My Temple)

Open your eyes Now My temple, my tabernacle, blood around me Stained glass, once beautiful Broken to pieces, strewn around me Screaming, I'm singing from my altar of illusion I’d rather be a martyr than a soul without a cause Curse my temple A house of worship You're still praying A movement broken And if my eyes, they fail me like you do I would gouge them out And if my tongue, it fails me like you do I would cut it out Curse my temple A house of worship You'rе still praying A movement broken Opеn sores Hypocrisy Righteous whores They watch my halo and me And if my eyes, they fail me like you do I would gouge them out And if my tongue, it fails me like you do I would cut it out Now it's time Gouge out your I don’t dare Does it work on you? My eyes You will fail me Faithless, left me Curse your glass eyes My temple My temple, dead around me Now I've got nothing to lose And if my eyes, they fail me like you do I would gouge them out And if my tongue, it fails me like you do I would cut it out And if my eyes, they fail me like you do I would gouge them out And if my tongue, it fails me like you do I would cut it out
