xystus - a waste of compassion lyrics

wait... prey...
patience is the answer
praise your conscience
for i was left alone

again brutish necessity
wipes its hands upon the napkin
of a dirty cause again
a waste of compassion

but just you wait
just you wait
now i am hurting too

you act divine when taking the pain alone
i run away, but i'm taking the fall

grief... hate...
and i've got you to blame
praise your conscience
for i was left alone

again brutish necessity
wipes its hands upon the napkin
of a dirty cause again
a waste of compassion

you act divine when taking the pain alone
i run away, but i'm taking the fall

you act divine when taking the pain alone
i run away, but i'm taking the fall and i take you down with me
