The Death We Seek
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.
With every gust of wind
We're blown further back
Forgetting more and more of our past
We sought to paint the world with our vision
Bitter times of our punishment grow far and wide, ignored
Is young demise not what you wished for?
The sky, it swells and sings
Begging for death at the hands of our misery
Blind pride was our disease
The world will feel the sting
The sky, it swells and sings
Begging for death at the hands of our misery
Blind pride was our disease
Do you accept your fate?
If I fall into the sky
Who would I begin to blame?
Reaching further from the light
We become what we have made
Serenity, always running from me
Can you feel it?
Dark clouds fill the sky
As the Sun begins to fade
We're swallowed in
A violent catastrophe begins
We are facing the end
We have found the death we seek
Torn apart at the dawn of suffering
Broken homes, decaying streets
Torn apart at the dawn of suffering
Chasms open beyond the scale of our perception
Disassociated with reality
The sky, it swells and sings
Begging for death at the hands of our misery
Blind pride was our disease
Do you accept your fate?
If I fall into the sky
Who would I begin to blame?
Reaching further from the light
We become what we have made
Serenity, always running from me
Can you feel it?
Dark clouds fill the sky
To know I am at fault
I bite my tongue and hang my head in shame
But I know from one look in your eyes
All along you've deceived me
Why would I ever want this?
Digging through the depths and cutting through the cracks
All I wanted was to shape the earth for you
And all you wanted was the knife digging through my back
Why would I ever want this?
Digging through the depths and cutting through the cracks
All I wanted was to shape the earth for you
And all you wanted was the knife digging through my back
