Protest the Hero

Lyrics to Wretch



Chews the fat with his creator

Over breakfast in the sunlight.



When he says grace! when he says grace

he feels enveloped like a shadow



0:37

But there are evenings, there are evenings

When this decimated world of movement, color and form

Gets thin, and getting thinner

When lights are dim and getting dimmer

When nights are grim and only getting, only getting grimmer.

Shake it down baby, OH!



As they barter their boulders

And martyr their soldiers

Teach a man to tear her f**king head

From her God-damned shoulders



Held into the sun

By the strands of her hair x3



They impart the secret hatred

From their fathers to their heirs





2:18

In silence left unbroken

On the bed, bound and gagged.

Bound, bound and gagged



2:33

With culture,language, myth and law

Our goddess gave birth,

Our goddess gave birth to your God



3:16

On a bed Bound and gagged

With culture, language, myth and law

From a wounded womb her flesh was scarred

And raw



Our goddess gave birth to your God x4

God damn!



Culture, language, myth and law

Our goddess, gagged

Culture, language, myth and law

Our goddess gave birth to your God.
