"My Place In The Dirt" lyrics

I offer myself to the way of death
My heart to suffering lands
Where few will tread their holy feet
Soil their sacred hands

Deliver me from the godless night
My fate unscathed
When Heaven wants for fallen hearts
I take to pulling graves

Save yourself
Crawl up to your throne
Hold your prayers
Sing to yours alone

I buried my hands in a mountain of hurt
Drank with the wicked for all that it's worth
You found escape in the walls of a church
You found desertion, I found my place in the dirt
My place in the dirt

I gave my song to the farthest gone
I slept in the lion's den
Rejected by my kindred blood
Marked as a lesser man

Some will call me "heathen"
They say my soul is damned
Forever will I believe in
This, my path, for dead I am

Save yourself
Crawl up to your throne
Hold your prayers
Sing to yours alone

I buried my hands in a mountain of hurt
Drank with the wicked for all that it's worth
You found escape in the walls of a church
You found desertion, I found my place in the dirt
My place in the dirt

You made division, you made a choice
You found a shelter from all of the noise
I'll be the weapon, I'll be the work
You found desertion, I found my place in the dirt

I'll be the weapon, I'll be the work
You found desertion, I found my place in the dirt
Place in the dirt
