Heathen’s Plea Lyrics by Karma and the Killjoys

2024

[VERSE 1]
Let the record show, when it came to blows
I took my share and got gone
I drew a line, thin as it was
I drew a line and got gone
[PRE-Chorus]
So when you meet your god
And you face him like a man
Omnipotent as you say he is
He will know who I am
[Chorus]
You can’t hide, you can’t hide
From yourself all the time
You’ll see me in her eyes
You’ll see me every time
Oh I don’t know your god
Or if he listens to a heathen’s plea
But I don’t forgive
And I don’t regret
If I can’t remember
I pray to god you never forget
[VERSE 2]
We were kids once beneath the trees
Bloody knuckles and bruised knees
My wounds festered and yours healed
Now I’m an open book and you’re sealed
Oh to be a man of virtue
Oh to have the power to hurt you
Synthetic heartbeat, synthetic shame
Still I can’t even say your name
[PRE-Chorus]
But when you meet your god
And you face him like a man
Omnipotent as you say he is
He will know who I am
[Chorus]
You can’t hide, you can’t hide
From yourself all the time
You’ll see me in her eyes
You’ll see me every time
Oh I don’t know your god
Or if He listens to a heathen’s plea
But I don’t forgive
And I don’t regret
If I can’t remember
I pray to god you never forget
[BRIDGE]
Back at home, blackout
Dig in your nails to rip them out
Don’t exist until you say I do
Really got nothing to lose
Fetishize the way I bleed
And your power over me
Bruises up and down my spine
No witness, no alibi
You can’t keep anyone close
I wonder what your thoughts are like
When you are alone
Do you remember how I used to glow?
All I wanted was a ride home
[Chorus]
You can’t hide, you can’t hide
From yourself all the time
You’ll see me in her eyes
You’ll see me every time
Oh I don’t know your god
Or if He listens to a heathen’s plea
But I don’t forgive
And I don’t regret
If I can’t remember
I pray to god you never forget
You can’t hide, you can’t hide
From yourself all the time
You’ll see me in her eyes
You’ll see me every time
Oh I don’t know your god
Or if He listens to a heathen’s plea
But I don’t forgive
And I don’t regret
If I can’t remember
I pray to god you never forget
