Lyrics
Tempest Tried and Tortured (The Bloodening)
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.
Blackened halos hang heavy over shell-shocked eyes
Love is a war my friend
Open wounds
Open the flood gates
Open the gates
A counterfeit contentment
Countdown to the day
Life is a war my friend
With every step you take
It takes you farther and further away
It takes you further waway
So let the truth bleed
Let it be whispered from one thousand dying breaths
Poisoned hope
You speak of justice as you turn your head
I refuse to burn with you
To rot in all your decadent decay
False martyrs for empty fights
Defile sacred ground
Blood runs thick through clenched fists
Words of regret
Vindictive cries
Rotting heroes and wasted lives
A battle cry lost on the horizon Betray
Betrayed
Hands clasped together
Pulled up by the roots
Bleeding from their throats
There never was a tomorrow
A battle cry lost on the horizon
Betray
Enotmbed in these forgotten catacombs
Slowly dying with a frigid smile
The malignancy of your hate
Tempest tried and tortured
Stumbling through the potter's ground
With a grin
Plagued by contempt
From where I stand
It's not hard to see that it's never been alright
Lost in a dreamer's valor
I refuse to burn with you
I refuse to rot in all your decadent decay
Now your wings have been tainted
Take the plunge
Sift through the refuse
Feast on the fodder
Feast on the spoils
Ask yourself
Do we jump or drown?
Bleed or burn?
Because in the end
Even the greatest hero dies
Sift through the refuse
Feast on the fodder
Feast on the spoils
Powder-stained and battle-scarred
I dare you not to forget
Temptest tried and tortured
Left to die from the inside fucking out
