lyrics

Oh life
And what we’ve made of it
We try
To keep the light off it
But the light will reveal
The light will reveal
Pain

Light will reveal
All the agony that’s been felt in this place
Monoliths of steel
The last standing monuments of human disgrace

So we shield our eyes
We shield from
Death and knowing
Misunderstanding
Life rearranging
We never knew what we were put here to do
So we break everything down into billions of pieces
Pieces of our soul

Gracefully we will follow
To see the ending of our times
Like the sea, it will swallow
And take away all our lives

Will there be redemption?
Will we make an honest plea?

Take your dreams
Chew them up
Spit them out
Making room for suffering

They come in the night to suppress your will
Cleverly disguised they’ll get their kill
They came to throw away all that we had created
A perfect balance, and ecosystem devastated
And all because of their jealous pride
They forced us to hide

This could be the end of it all
Draw in your last dying breath
Little did you know, we answered your call
Dying breathes within the eyes of the ancient disease

The ancient disease
Will come and go as it damn well does please
In the blood of man
For centuries and centuries
The blood on their hands
That will cannot be washed clean
Shall be purified
No fate their own they can decide

No fate their own they can decide
Limited by foolish pride
Little did they know
Little did they know
The parasite inside their minds
Stole the light behind their eyes
Little did they know
Little did they know

Impending doom
Lurches ever closer
Before you know it
It’s at your door

It’s here, death is here
To redeem all that had once been broken
It’s here, death is here
To put the last nail in the coffin
