Temperance - Last Rite Lyrics

Come into this hallowed hall. throw your baggage down outside my door.
pulled into my fold, all are brothers unto me; saints and sinners, who could ask for more?
dust the cobwebs from the bed. lay your body down and rest a while.
if you stop to pray, spare a thought or two for me, i'll be sure you go out with a smile

CHORUS
now i lay you down to sleep. (who's watching over me?)
judgement's rendered, it's too late to plead.
you spoke the litany. you prayed for me, your soul to keep.
you kissed my hem (ring). you put your faith in me and it's too late to plead.

close the book you tried to read. I'll tell you everything you need to know
hang on every word. you'll memorize but never learn. disinformation keeps me in control.
give me all that you hold dear. you'd have nothing if it weren't for me.
corrosive memories, these relics hanging on the wall - tokens of my generosity.

CHORUS

take this goblet from my hand. let us drink to our mortality.
steeped in pestilence, kiss this poison from my lips, celebrate this last fatality...

now i lay you down to sleep. (who's watching over me?)
judgement's rendered, it's too late to plead.
you are the laity. you prayed for me, your soul to keep.
you kissed my hem. you put your faith in me and it's too late to plead.

CHORUS
too late to plead...
