"Your Beloved Scapegoat" lyrics - SOILWORK

SOILWORK
"Your Beloved Scapegoat"

So the idol you preached
Has turned to nothing
It was making your way
Through the dust
When searching
You never thought
It would give you up
Your beloved scapegoat
You never thought
It would interrupt
Your sweet escape

Those were the times when
You cranked it all up
You soared for the moment
Without wings to lift up...

I'm crossing that
Line with a state of mind
One more night missed out
As if I was blind to the fact
It won't wait...
Won't you carry me home?

Did you do it all for nothing
Or did it make you
Sure of something
No matter the subjection
Or the mystery of life
Was just put on hold

You will always treasure the things
That reject you and possess you
Breeding new life through
The eyes of the insane
And it all comes down to you

Those were the times when
You cranked it all up
You soared for the moment
Without wings to lift up
But tonight

I'm crossing that line
With a state of mind
One more night missed out
As if I was blind to the fact
It won't wait
Won't you carry me home?

Nothing can touch such
A mind in distress
Won't you find another
Bright solution
Crossing that river
Get away with what's left
Eternally stuck in the
Realm of confusion

But tonight
I'm crossing that line
With a state of mind
One more night missed out

As if I was blind to the fact
It won't wait
Won't you carry me home?

I'm crossing that line
With a state of mind
One more night missed out
As if I was blind to the fact
It won't wait

Won't you carry me home
Carry me...
