Recovery division — Leaked transcript

Signal 07 / Recovered

I'm Not Here

Field recording — surfaced without clearance

You felt their calls but none were spared

So heed your fall, it's only fair

Shotgun pastor, war-torn soldier

Sing till you're alone

Rifle bastard, faithless holder

Left no flesh or bone

The saints all died in wedding gowns

A halo lost and drowned

I'm not here, hold your fear

I won't break beneath your apathy

When you're near all is clear

Heaven never meant a thing to me

Another year, I'll rot in here

Loveless

Drag your heart into the night

And kiss your bride goodbye

Guilt is written in your eyes

Your soul's too stained to hide

A pistol pressed up on your sins

Raise those hands up high

I'm not here, hold your fear

I won't break beneath your apathy

When you're near all is clear

Heaven never meant a thing to me

Another year, I'll rot in here

Loveless

They call you names through smoke and flame

No god or grave will silence me

Through ash and fire, I stake my claim

You're never stopping me

I'm not here, hold your fear

I won't break beneath your apathy

When you're near all is clear

Heaven never meant a thing to me

Another year, I'll rot in here

Loveless

Bite my tongue, sing unsung

Hope is just a noose you tied for me

Pull the plug, and drain my lungs

Loveless
