from the songs album The Moon Is Down
the paddle is broken
the punishment
is served in full
the welts are faded
the pain still lingers
as it should
the lone receiver
of empty compliments
taken in
and bought in full
the lesson's hammered
the message has been
reinforced
you said there would not be
any reason
to fear this world
but you're the reason
you're the reason
i feel
broken
and branded
and burning with doubt
the welts are faded
the pain still lingers
as it should
these things are dealt in increments
constant and laced with detriment
how dare you ever feign surprise
when all those fingers point inside
they're piercing you
you said there would not be
any reason
to fear this world
but you're the reason
you're the reason
i feel
broken
and branded
and burning with doubt
these things are dealt in increments
