Effigy Lyrics by Urge Overkill

Rock & Roll Submarine

2011

[Verse 1]
We're all astound, the winds have always blown
Dust to sand, the way it always gone
All that matter, is that I don't wanna come home
What I miss is a [?] I didn't wonder

[Chorus]
We'll never change, never could
At least I'll take a long way
No remains, no return

[Verse 2]
Where I've been in
The prison I've been shown
To burn again, to live it on and on
All these plans, a loved [?] always burns
All of this, I want this, I'll live [?]

[Chorus]
We'll never change, never could
At least I'll take a long way
No remains, no return
Left with me in effigy

[Verse 3]
I won't wait, I won't see straight for another year on
Shout out for hate, it's a police state
I don't want a way out
Know you don't wanna catch me
Now that I got in too deep
I don't want an apology
I want an effigy

[Bridge]
Here I stand, the [?] shown
When it comes to this, another miss
I didn't want it

[Chorus]
We'll never change, never could
At least I'll take a long way
No remains, no return
Left with me in effigy

[Verse 3]
I won't wait, I won't see straight for another year on
Shout out for hate, it's a police state
I don't want a way out
Know you don't wanna catch me
Now that I got in too deep
I don't want an apology
I want an effigy
