Somber hands are burnt Finding ways to earn So we'll take our turn No-one's livin' better off Righteous man you walk beside me (And put my faults on display) I don't care who's pure and gold (You wear your life like it's a crown) A righteous path won't protect me (No ones livin' better off) I don't care who's pure and gold Though the look is stern Swallow bitter words Lessons never learned Righteous man you walk beside me (And put my faults on display) I don't care who's pure and gold (You wear your life like it's a crown) A righteous path won't protect me (No ones livin' better off) I don't care who's pure and gold Take off your mask with a humbled expression Crumbling away for a holy confession Promises we take are the promises we fake Make us cherish what is broken Confusion is spoken Your hands aren't clean Someone told you they were dirty Your life's unworthy Your soul stays searching Told to kneel not to stand The righteous man High and mighty all depending on Fortunes of the wealthy
