I thought I'd upload this as it is a fully class song, originally by Hot

Water

Music, but then done as a solo artist by Chuck Ragan. The bear man himself.

It's

pretty hard to recognise where the verses space, if at all, so I've just

dissected them myself.
Intro: C#5
Verse 1:
C#5 Asus2 E
Transgressions are made while cowards convey with a demon's ear,
C#5 E
fixed and set to slay. While the statue awaits to be whittled away
Asus2
C#5
with a mock of a slogan hiding filth with fear.
Asus2 E
Never to learn, only to burn...and be burned.
C#5 Asus2
Branded straight through slate. Clear as common day.
E C#5
What shall be the mark to be made?
Chorus:
Asus2 B5
When we crush it all to burn it down without sight, without sound.
C#5

Not anything but a casualty forgotten in the ground.
Asus2
B5 C#5
A simple shell, that's solemn still--without sight, without sound.
Interlude: C#5

Verse 2:
C#5 Asus2
Make a martyr, a pedestal with ribbons of slaughter.
E
Feed the altar, stoke the fire it will take over.

Ignore the cut... the skin with callus as well as interest.
C#5
Asus2 E
If all are reckless none is to profit, none is to win it.
B5
So who will pay for all the years, all the lives, from either side?
Asus2
E
All the tales, all the time of living blind playing "God Deciding?"
C#5 Asu2 E
And who will die, next in line , for the lie: justified
C#5 Asus2
For the rise, sitting high playing "God Deciding?"
E C#5
Walk away from the rage and revenge?
Asus2 C#5
Inhumane consequence comes in time playing "God Deciding."
