We are the venom in the cure
That brings us to our knees
The hollow cry to the truth we cannot see
Drowning in sermons preached by deafened lips
Bound to the counterfeit
They sell us bliss
How could you break
This fragile breath?
And I can’t see why
Now cast aside
To find you lost
Left to die
Sickened souls stumbling out of their graves
Fleeing to darkness
Yet we’re bound in chains
Empty shells in gilded tombs of shame
The world groans beneath our twisted games
These well-kept failures in grand halls of stone
Rotting from within
Wrapped in robes of cold
No truth found when lips move like steel
A hollow song that cannot heal
How could you break
This fragile breath?
And I can’t see why
Now cast aside
To find you lost
Left to die
There’s no refuge
No rest from the pain
The storm speaks lies and sings in disdain
How could You break
This fragile breath?
And I can’t see why
Now cast aside
Sickened souls stumbling out of their graves
Fleeing to darkness
Yet we’re bound in chains
Empty shells in gilded tombs of shame
The world groans beneath our twisted games
No light could pierce the silence that day
No words of hope
Just a cold, empty gaze
(Sickened souls stumbling out of their graves)
(Fleeing to darkness)
(Yet we’re bound in chains)
(Empty shells in gilded tombs of shame)
(The world groans beneath our twisted games)
