If you've got to be remembered for what you became
I hope the beasts of good fortune
Host a feast on your name
And If you've really got to be remembered
You shouldn't tolerate shame

‘Cause I won't fight you
‘cause I can't right you
So I won't light you
I won't light you

If your heart is ever racing at the thought of your fall
Don’t make an enemy of progress
Just take an match to your soul
And If you've really got to be remembered
Just hope they don't remember it all

‘Cause I won't fight you
‘cause I can't right you
So I won't light you
I won't light you

& it’s because of your soul that I have forgiven it all
They felt decades of pain were more than a fair reward
& your diseased heart is the reason I want you to live
So I can watch you erode ain't Karma a bitch?

‘Cause I won't fight you
‘cause I can't right you
So I won't light you
I won't light you

It’s always the same, your soul is the same.
