Heretic

God hit my line
But I let it ring
Time after time
Lie after lie
Never answered
Never believed in an afterlife
Now my body confined
To a burning tomb
Consumed
By flames and guilt
I'll pay the price
My silence ended up
Costing me my fucking life
I try to pick up
But now no one is ever there
I try to listen
Through the screams and all the despair
All the countless years of rejection
Screaming up at the sky
You never answered then
Of course it's too late
Once I opened up my eyes
I thought I had time
But time don't ever wait
Nah
It just watches while you struggle
With your self hate
Yuh
All my words were poison
Drippin' from a bitter tongue
I used to curse the Heavens
Now I'm speaking to no one
Every call i ignored
Came back like a knife
Now I'm payin' the price
My consequence is this afterlife
No angels here
Just ash in my throat
Every word I never said
Wrapping me up like a tight rope
Shoulda spoke when I still had breath
Shoulda reached when I felt that depth
Shoulda answered the phone
When I was on the edge
But now it's too late
Took too many steps
I can feel my self fallin'
Faster and faster
Just my luck
Ending up down here
Didn't believe in either
What an idea
That I would be
Punished for my ignorance
For never using what you gave me
Throwing away all my hope and dignity
I guess you really did have faith in me
You kept calling and calling
But I was too busy
Now I'm lookin back while fallin'
And I wish I answered
God hit my line
But I let it ring
Time after time
Lie after lie
Never answered
Never believed in an afterlife
Now my body confined
To a burning tomb
Consumed
By flames and guilt
I'll pay the price
My silence ended up
Costing me my fucking life
I try to pick up
But now no one is ever there
I try to listen
Through the screams and all the despair
All the countless years of rejection
Screaming up at the sky
You never answered then
Of course it's too late
Once I opened up my eyes
