Lyrics

Sanctuary

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Father never warned him of the dead that live within

Tearing through his skin at last

Heavy head in battered hands, the tortured boy kneels

Praying to an empty God to see his end tonight

Father never warned him of the dead that lives within

Tearing through his skin at last

I am not your sanctuary

I am not your alibi

Try and break through the walls around you

Beat me with broken hands?

I will silence you

Just beyond the shadows waits a darkness

Only you, my child, can bear this gift from me

I leave you now to claim your place

Across the great divide

All shall suffer me

I am not your sanctuary

I am not your alibi

Try and break through the walls around you

Beat me with broken hands?

I will silence you

I am not your sanctuary

I am not your alibi

Try and break through the walls around you

Beat me with broken hands?

I will silence you

I am the enemy

I am the enemy

I am the enemy (I am the enemy)

I am the enemy (I am the enemy)

I am the enemy

I am not your sanctuary

I am not your alibi (I am the enemy)

Try and break through the walls around you

Beat me with broken hands?

I will silence you

(I am the enemy)

I am the enemy (I am the enemy)

I am the enemy (I am the enemy)

I am the enemy (I am the enemy)

I am the enemy (I am the enemy)
