The Mercy Cage – Reduce.distill.purify.teach lyrics

You took
You removed all that was pure and right
You tore it all down
And replaced it with this hole
And I sit here
Wracked with fear of the surrounds
Of the disease
You took everything away...
Wind back the hands of time

I am poisoned by the stain
Of this chemical halo
Neurotic from the sickness
As the blade slips in
Like the leper said
"Reduce, distil, purify, teach"
This cancerous exorcism
Of all that you stole from me
You took everything away...
Wind back the hands of time

I am poisoned by the stain

You took everything away

Wind back the hands of time
[Reduce distil purify teach]
[This cancerous exorcism]
[All that you took from me]
[Rain, rain wash away]
[Purifies the sin]
[The horror of the expectation]
[Razor slipping in]
Wind back the hands of time
