Crossing The Rubicon Lyrics

Of all the times Ive been disrespected, youd think itd be no surprise
Learning lessons, all the precious treasures take all that youve got
Ill take your ready hand with a ready blade
Dead set to make you lie in the bed youve made
Paid in full, Ill take it from your pride
I dont know what you thought, but youve gone past the line
And youve got me wrong
The time has come, your song has long been sung
Brought down, you wont have long to go
Im not cutting a loss again
An hourglass of sand, and Ill be on time, inform the rest
Run as fast as you can, hells coming for you
Try to strike and then slip away
But I wont let you leave without feeling an equal pain
Youll see, because Ill make you see
Left in my council youll know what it means to respect me
Once Ive caught you alone, Ill teach you all you need to know
Pray, once Ive caught you alone,
That I teach you all you need to know.
Each of us has boundaries, everyone has got a breaking point
I wish I held desire solely to right this wrong
Take careful tones urging the dawn to come
Make every word worth what it takes in turn
But I cant go on with my faith interrupted
How can I look the other way?
Youve shown me there is no other way out
