lyrics

When the fragile strands of all that we have done
now become these iron chains rusted out and covered in dust
and this heavy pain has sharpened our icy thoughts
and loosed them on each other in this merciless war or words

Now we feast on made up lies and fill ourselves with hat
and stand here waiting for the bitter tide to sweep us away

And drown us here right where we stand
And drown us here right where we stand
And drown us here right where we stand

And this raging glory we used to command
No longer heeds our dying dissonant calls
The empty space between our word draws our stares to the floor
And this heavy silence says more than we want to know

Now we feast on made up lies and fill ourselves with hat
and stand here waiting for the bitter tide to sweep us away

And drown us here right where we stand
And drown us here right where we stand
And drown us here right where we stand
