Lyrics
Guilt be Thy Name
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.
They are preaching for their fears
Preaching for their laws
Like cruel attacks are coming up
And birth shall be no more
Breaking out the emptiness
Take their words for nothing
'Cause that's what they really are
Really are
Like they should have the right to take a life
For what will be
A growing flower for those
Who really made their life in peace
Are you destiny, gods
Who gives human life a fucking number
Created deceace to watch the people damage each other
They are preaching for their fears
Preaching for their laws
Like cruel attacks are coming up
And birth shall be no more
Breaking out the emptiness
Take their words for nothing
'Cause that's what they really are
Really are
Our eyes are counting souls
Like the gods are counting names
But the gods are looking for someone
The one to replace
They cried for the ones they have lost
But guilt be their name
They are preaching for their fears
Preaching for their laws
Like cruel attacks are coming up
And birth shall be no more
Breaking out the emptiness
Take their words for nothing
'Cause that's what they really are
Really are
Like they should have the right to take a life
For what will be
A growing flower for those
Who really made their life in peace
Are you destiny, gods
Who gives human life a fucking number
Created deceace to watch the people damage each other
