Purgatory Hill

Lyrics

I never even knew you
But i heard the note today
It talked about injustice
and how we look the other way
i knew full well your meanin
But my world just moves too fast
It's a shame about your future
It's a crime about your past

Uh-huh
Uh-huh

Was there no one who could save you
from the prison of each breath?
Like Rapunzel in her tower
Isolation equals death
Was there no one who could rescue you
from the prison of your pain?
Am i tougher or just lucky
Our fate didn't end the same?

uh-huh
uh-huh

Well my heart has run on empty
Since i heard the fuckin' news
We're a heartless, godless culture
We walk nowhere in your shoes

Uh-huh
Uh-huh

For me it's 6:30 in the morning
and my mood's as black as rain
i am 30 light years older
but i understand your pain
They all hate you cause you left them here
to struggle on their own
I'm just sorry you saw no choice
Til death chilled you to the bone

Uh-huh
Uh-huh

But my heart has run on empty
Since i heard the fuckin' news
We're a heartless, godless culture
We walk nowhere in your shoes

Well the good news if there's any
is you ever lived at all
But our country kills its heroes
We just raise them for the fall

Uh-huh
Raise them for the fall
Uh-huh
We raise them for the fall
Oh lord
Aww we raise them for the fall
Uh'huh
Raise them for the fall
