Put the Christmas lights away
I′m not staying
Business grins and drunken lies
Dead man's curves and alibis
Private for the richest ones
Public screening for their guns
Scratch the surface to reveal
Another twist to make me reel
Roaches scattering from view
Leaving only you
Padonia, Padonia
Whose to blame Padonia
It hurts to try and hold you up
And I sense it all around
Not a shred of dignity found
The Holy Ghost is on the run
From my exit Padonia
One step up to find His name
One step down, we′re all the same
Don't pretend you didn't know
Get on display for me to show
Just how terrible you are
Let′s identify those scars
Take your picture for the rest
So they′ll all know your address
Let's find out who started first
I bet it′s someone even worse
More bad apples in the bunch
Now I'm finally fed up
I want to leave it all behind
Try to salvage what is mine
Demons scattering from view
Leaving only you
Smell of cut grass fills the air
Chlorine mist soothes all cares
Car wash girls try to hide
Remnants of a darker side
Hold me, love me
I apologize
But before I can take the dust out from your eyes
But before I can take the dust out from your eyes
Please remove the plank from mine
Take the dust out from your eyes
Please remove the plank from mine
