We're the modern hell that that book talks of
Sorry dear friend but we won't march forward
Once more into the breach lost its romance about 8 men ago
It's in the name of god we spread our disease from our alters across skies and seas
We pretend to love although we know nothing of sacrifice
We try to bleed when our hearts have never broken
This dance of denial casts failure as our shadows
With our heads in the sand we hang and burn in our gallows
Let me rid myself of what is below
This blood soaked soil can't be renewed tomorrow
We are the darkest being this world has ever known
With spotlights for heads and blood on our hands
We delete all that is in our hearts to destroy the beautiful and silence the pure
Our streets turn white these sirens echo throughout all time
We rape and burn under the guise of saints and mothers
We're running out of blind eyes and cheeks to turn
These signs ignored for far too long are now jagged and ready to burn
