Charred Remains - Autopsy

Oh, I see you in your cobra nest All dressed up in your Sunday best In the opal morning light See your gun there shining bright Shining bright Now the storm is on its way Coming here to break the day Steaming rain Oh, you go shoot me down Take my halo, yoke and crown Yoke and crown 'Cause I've been to the darkest place I know You, my dear, shouldn't fear what lies below It's just bones Now you go softly soft Picking out better bones than your own Oh, I see you creep in the dark Sticking pins into the rain To wash away I've been to the only place I know It's just bones So you, my dear, shouldn't fear what lies below It's just bones Just bones Bones, bones, bones, bones, bones Bones, bones, bones, bones, bones Bones, bones, bones, bones, bones So how can love bare to see you, bare to see you go alone? Black and blue,this beating heart's got the same blood As your own, as your own So you, my dear, shouldn't fear what lies below It's just bones And I've been to the darkest place you know It's just bones Bones, bones, bones, bones Bones, bones, bones, bones

I wish I was free of this I see her in my dreams Wish that she wasn't there (but she still haunts me, and I) Still feel her breath on me Still want to taste her skin (but I know that would kill me) No Damn her, still, I choke on her lies Still reeling from her last caress, her goodbye Oh, how this sickens me This wretched fools' affair (I can't erase this from me) And now it permeates And every thought I feel The anger writhes in my soul No Damn her, still, I feel my stomach turn Choke back, hold my head high, I'm strong No Damn her, still, I choke on her lies Not reeling, I'm strong Damn her, still I feel my stomach turn Choke back, hold my head high, I'm strong No Damn her, still, I choke on her lies Not reeling, I'm strong I wish I was free of this

Da-da-da-da-da (Mmm-da-da-da) Da-da-da-da-da (Mmm-da-da-da) Da-da-da-da-da (Mmm-da-da-da) Da-da-da-da-da I was staring every night at the top of the moon Hoping that one day it'd bring me closer to You And You will come with open arms Even though I was far away And You taught me such things, like joy is something you choose I was a girl in the window, wrapped up in blues You said, "Start running towards Me" I said, "I'm scared, but I'll trust in You" The stars alone Are Your works of art Undiscovered colors that show us who You are And as I stood there in awe of everything You've made I heard You whisper to me and say "Look how My love remains" Look how My love remains Look how My love remains Look how My love remains And You lifted my love, chained and burdened no more I was a witness to grace, and resilience I wore I owe it all to You, God I'm Yours forevermore And then You silenced my fears and I stood up to dance They were all so confused given my circumstance I knew I couldn't explain it But I gave it another chance The stars alone Are Your works of art Undiscovered colors that show us who You are And as I stood there in awe of everything You've made I heard You whisper to me and say "Look how My love remains" Look how My love remains (My love remains) Look how My love remains (My love remains) Look how My love remains (My love remains) Look how My love remains (My love remains) Look how My love remains (My love remains) Look how My love remains (My love remains) The stars alone Are Your works of art Undiscovered colors that show us who You are And as I stood there in awe of everything You've made I heard You whisper to me and say "Look how My love remains" Look how My love remains (My love remains) Look how My love remains (My love remains) Look how My love remains (My love remains) Look how My love remains (My love remains) Look how My love remains (My love remains) Look how My love remains (My love remains) Look how My love remains (My love remains) Look how My love remains (My love remains) Look how My love remains (My love remains)

Cast into - pit of despair Facing madness - alone your stare Insanity prevails - nothing remains At the point - end of life Into the void - the fading light As darkness grows - nothing remains Solemn vows - once declared Cast aside - without care Left behind - all hope of life Final twist - unsharpened knife Trapped within - no escape Grasped by dementia - none can save Scars inside - lie deep within Mass psychosis - the fear begins Fear begins Hysteria - loss control Hallucination - a dying world Twisted visions - what shall be Vast neurosis - increasing misery Bereft of feeling Dispossessed of pain Life not worth living Driving you insane Imposed delusions Mentally deranged No sense of reason Nothing remains
