Screwtape

I heard a voice
Whisper in my ear
He said: "This is life
You'll never live it twice
So enjoy it while it's here"
I heard a voice
Whisper loud and clear
He said: "Do what you want
Whatever you want
You've got nothing to fear"

He said: "Hope
Is never what it seems
I know that this is what you wanted
Yeah but this is what you need"
And he said: "Faith
In all the wrong things
I know that this is what you wanted
Yeah but this is what you need"

Tell me, yeah is it really
As hard as they say?
And send
Yeah my regards
To Wormwood
Yeah and Screwtape

He saw the lands
Are braced against my back
In directions, no, I didn't wanna go
He said: "you can't turn back"
He saw the lands
All holding me down
I said: "Who made this noose?
You better cut me loose
Because I can't break out"

He said: "Hope
Is never what it seems
I know that this is what you wanted
Yeah but this is what you need"
And he said: "Faith
In all the wrong things
I know that this is what you wanted
Yeah but this is what you need"

Tell me, yeah is it really
As hard as they say?
And send
Yeah my regards
To Wormwood
Yeah and Screwtape
Yeah
Yeah
Ah
Yeah

He said: "Hello, yeah welcome home
You know we've been waiting for you
We've watched you
Straight from this place
We really like what we've seen here
Now you're among your friends
We've only done life like you
A life: indulgent, undone
Are you lookin' sharp cause
This is no vacation
