Lyrics

Father Xavier was a righteous man, but his heart was sad a blue
He vanquished demons in the name of God, but he couldn’t contrast one truth
The grass is always greener, the penitence is leaner, on the other side
Ridin’ on a segway, justify my gateway, to the other side

Mr. Razor slaughtered 30 men with a heart of stony ice
He saw the preacher with every kill, a black sheep sacrifice
The grass is always greener, the penitence is leaner, on the other side
Ridin’ on a segway, justify my gateway, to the other side

I was just a child with tear-stained eyes, but you raped my soul with your holy lies
When you plant a seed don’t take for granted, the insanity that you fuckin’ planted
It was just a matter of time before I cracked, sippin’ my red wine in a heart attack
I raise my hands and ask you, “Father why? Am I really gonna die”?

Guitar solo

There’s a ring of roses on my head, thorns stabbin’ my brain until I’m dead
You weren’t the first you weren’t the last, I drove the maddness from my past
“Forgive me father for I have sinned, I stand before you in my chagrin”
“I seek no pity, nor forgiveness, only redemption for my past”
How does it feel to be the prey, You’re crossing over on this day
“Begging, Pleading, Crossing, Over”
“Begging, Pleading, Crossing, Over”
The grass is always greener, the penitence is leaner, on the other side
Ridin’ on a Segway, justify my gateway, to the other side…
…On the other side!
