lyrics

I’ve been falling away down in history
Give me the answers to find my way
The details you hold back won’t bring no fear to me
Starving vultures circle ahead

Hesitating, retrobating, have we had enough yet?
Compromising, exorcising, will I be unfreed?

Your all-out lies, they will despise and hoax you
Throw you to the wolves and shun you
It’s a dare
Can’t you see your misconceptions have you dying here?
A boy holds his father’s head
Stand clear, buried in liberty

I’ll know better than tempting the twist of fate
Been given answers, the rest I’ll seek
Breaking Down in a rage of vermillion
A sense of pain unknown to me

Hesitating, retrobating, have we had enough yet?
Compromising, exorcising, will I be unfreed?

Your all-out lies, they will despise and hoax you
Throw you to the wolves and shun you

I seem t’ve lost the key…
Stars are born
No way to turn
Creatures make their move
Their eyes are glazed in black
As a mother tells her son
There won’t be time for “anyone”

It fills our lives from the day we take of breath
How the looming cove of solitude
We reach our final end
All I see is a myriad of regret

Cross the bridge, leave the nest
Find the light in a day
Bring the darkness, fall to rest
Creeping tides, our lungs
Choking, holding back to carry on

Hold me back
Angels weep
Under siege
The curtain’s set
Unleash me from these vines
Witness the rage to end all times

Crawling forwards
Don’t look back, the lies: it haunts you

And never underestimate the road to the edge of the earth
The walls have fallen down, as men have walked before
My swansong is set to the edge of the earth
Walls have fallen down, as men have walked before
My swansong is me
