Of Bane & Disease - Oh, Sleeper

I’m gonna give them what they want

Peel back and let lap the dogs at the fat

Yeah, for once (For once)

It’s time to step out in the sun

A decade in shadow

I’m shield shed and carving my own

I’m shield shed and carving my own

If I mean honesty, you say to judge me

It’s condemning one’s self to hypocrisy

Then, oh, what a defeat, the way your world beats

Spiders play the bane, flies spread the disease

I alone

Running back to the line we left

How could you leave?

I’ll fly my own crest

(Don't turn, we need you)

I alone in the scar-crossed armor

Running back to the life we left

How could you leave?

So far from over

I’ll fly my own crest

You want to know the real me?

You want to see me?

Then just know that when you turn your head

At my broken mess, be it judgement or jest

It’s the same damn thing, don’t you ever forget

Don’t you forget

I think it’s time that for once (For once)

It’s time you step up to the front

Take the rudder by the wheel, steer us into the sun

Yeah, for once (For once)

I can’t lead us through the storm

A decade of battle

I’m too strained to stand on my own

I’m too strained to stand on my own

I alone in the scar-crossed armor

Running back to the line we left

How could you leave?

So far from over?

I’ll fly my own crest

I alone in the scar-crossed armor

Running back to the life we left

I’d never leave, so far from over

I’ll fly my own crest

Don’t turn, they need you

A lifetime on the frontline

An honest banner in the divide

Never knowing why I’m always behind

Spiders play the bane, flies spread the disease

I alone in the scar-crossed armor

Running back to the line we left

How could you leave?

So far from over

Go fly your own crest

I alone in the scar-crossed armor

Running back to the life we left

I’d never leave, so far from over

I’ll fly my own crest

You want to know the real me?

You want to see me?

Then just know that when you turn your head

At my broken mess, be it judgement or jest

It’s the same damn thing, don’t you ever forget

'Cause I mean honestly, you say to judge me

It’s condemning one’s self to hypocrisy

Then, oh, what a defeat, the way your world beats

Spiders play the bane, flies spread the disease
