lyrics

Rake the earth and make it yield
Sons of men to turn the fields
Soaked with blood the envy red
All for that which one man said

Build your walls
Protect what’s helpless
Dig your trenches
Guide all the faithless

You must maintain your bridges
What you say is infectious
Contradict your way of life
Malleable interior
Inferior to believe what’s outside
Another echo chamber
Separate your reasoning

The veil has already begun to thin
In this world of sin
I won’t lose hope, I won’t lose

I spent days wasting
Nights of discontent
Every deed malnourished
Don’t pull out the roots
We grow from the pain
It’s not what makes you fade
It’s how you maintain


I’m fractured and bleeding
Rupturing all my skin
I’m broken, need feeding


Sacrifice all I’ve been
Am I my brother’s keeper
A servant or a creature
The savior or the reaper
Condemn the believer

The veil has already begun to thin
In this world of sin
Hell has swarmed in
Prepare for the deluge
I won’t lose hope, I won’t lose

I spent days wasting
Nights of discontent
Every deed malnourished
Don’t pull out the roots
We grow from the pain
It’s not what makes you fade
It’s how you maintain

Skin healing from the torture
Yesterday paid in full
Forgery of idols, is tomorrow worth fighting for
Torn apart from the friction
Yesterday is wasted
Today is a gift to make tomorrow worth fighting for

I won't lose hope
In the darkest of days

I spent days wasting
Nights of discontent
Every deed malnourished
Don’t pull out the roots
We grow from the pain
It’s not what makes you fade
It’s how you maintain

I won’t lose hope
