I`ve run my ship aground
on the rocks of the soul
There`s no lie like independence
there`s no demon like control
I`ve fanned the burning embers
til my house was on fire
There`s no parody like power
There`s no fever like desire
I`ve drained the wine of darkness
to the dregs of deceit
There`s no drug as strong as pride
There`s no blindness like conceit
I`ve railed against the mountain
With a pickaxe and a file
There`s no minefield like presumption
There`s no death wish like denial
There`s no gunshot like conviction
There`s no conscience bulletproof
There`s no strength like utter weakness
There`s no insult like the truth
I`ve adjusted my prescription
til I couldn`t trust my vision
there`s no killer like convenience
there`s no sickness like omission
I`ve amended resolutions and resisted explanation
There`s no trap door like emotion
There`s no pit like reputation
There`s no cancer like ambition
There`s no cure like crucifixion
