Infinite mercy
Gives you the strength to carry through
One thing is certain
Nobody walks around the rules

So sit yourself down, inside the choir
Take your place, in the black my friend
Lose your faith, and then retire
Slip into oblivion again, my friend

Someone uncovers
Pieces of undiscovered sin
As soon as you’re able
You can start to cave then in

So sit yourself down, inside the choir
Take your place, in the black my friend
Lose your faith, and then retire
Slip into oblivion again, my friend

Does no good to try to save your name
Your gonna leave this world the way you came
Live in compassion
Don’t let it dominate your pride
Nobody’s asking’
“How does it feel to step aside?”

So sit yourself down, inside the choir
Take your place, in the black my friend
Lode your faith, and then retire
Slip into oblivion
Slip into oblivion
Slip into oblivion again, my friend
