[Intro]
I better think of my answers now
Because I know the questions will be asked
Like if I brought the joy I found
In the confessions of a mask
The tip of my tongue's already
Touching the top of my mouth
It's meaning manifest in mercy
Burning down, burning down
Burning down, burning down
Burning down, burning down
Burning down the house

[Verse]
It's true that tactless teem totem-poles
Turn tolerance to tired taboos
It's true that a bullet never knocks on the door
It's about to come crashing through
It's true that tactless teem totem-poles
Turn tolerance to tired taboos
It's true that a bullet never knocks on the door
It's about to come crashing through
I'm walking one last mile in big steps as your alter-wine
I'm doing it in tattered shoes that aren't even mine
Because my own are in a box locked up with possessions I can't have
Like the gunman with his future and the prison priest's golden calf
[Chorus]
Walking one last mile
Walking one last mile
Blindfolds aside, I'd probably still close my eyes (Walking one last mile)
I'd try to feel a trembling fetal life inside (Walking one last mile)
Of a shotgun barrel that's about to make me bleed (Shotgun barrel makes me bleed)
Like an ulcer in the stomach of the beast (Beast)

[Bridge]
Like a little girl on a bed that was years ago deceased
Was resurrected last night with a letter she can't trace (Letter she can't trace)
Like a little girl on a bed that was years ago deceased
Was resurrected last night with a letter she can't trace
Resurrected to be killed then maybe born again
I'll always be Kezia as long as any hope remains (Kezia as long as any hope remains)

[Refrain]
(I'll always be Kezia) Resurrected to be killed then maybe born again
I'll always be Kezia as long as any hope (Kezia as long as any hope remains)

[Outro]
Resurrected to be killed and then maybe born again
I'll always be Kezia so long as any hope remains
