"The Gates" lyrics

When I'm laid to rest in this dirt
And I'm left to fall to my broken knees
This world has shown me its teeth
And it has fucking sunk them into me
Go!
Yeah!

Take me away
Who will open the gate for me?
Who will open the gate?

I spent forever restoring my faith to face the cold touch that nails me in place
I still hold the weight of distaste and debt for my sin
I guess I'll piss in the wind
(I spent forever restoring my faith)

Rotten pale, push me away
Nothing left of me result of decay
A vessel with essence released
Someday I know this mortal life will cease
Don't carry me wherever you go
I'll weigh you down, wicked painful and slow
No remnants remain
(No remnants remain)
When I'm gone everything will be the same

I stay indebted to my faith
And I feel the blade of it's ill intent
This world descends on my back
But I will not be broken again
I will not be broken again
Drop!

(Who will open the gates?)

Dragging me down, I'm gritting my teeth
Won't be defeated, I won't retreat
Take on anything and never back down
No rest till you're six feet in the ground
And the rain falls around you, bitch
No remnants remain
(No remnants remain)
When you're gone everything will be the same

This world has shown me it's teeth and it has sunk them into me
