The Chalice - Monument

I’ve seen this movie many times before

Been brought down to my knees

And made to feel so small

They used to tell me that the world is fair

Well I no longer care, I need a new way out

Can you drink from Satan’s chalice

Without the sting of its poison

Destroying your soul

There are many paths that lead to sadness

Yet there is hope if you try to remember

There’s good in us all

Your mother told you to obey the rules

Of high society and do just as you’re told

Here in the jungle we have highway kings

And pretty midnight queens

That live to break the law

Can you drink from Satan’s chalice

Without the sting of its poison

Destroying your soul

There are many paths that lead to sadness

Yet there is hope if you try to remember

There’s good in us all

So in the end I’m leaving you with this

Give always one more kiss before you say goodbye

Life is too short to miss the things that matter

Heal your wounds with laughter

Let your spirit fly

Can you drink from Satan’s chalice

Without the sting of its poison

Destroying your soul

There are many paths that lead to sadness

Yet there is hope if you try to remember

There’s good in us all
