lyrics

Heading for the castle to break down the walls
When there’s no one there to test for faults
Standing in the hideout we sharpen our swords
When the demons arise to eat our souls

And I’ll feel it in my veins
Crawling under my skin
I’ll die alone within my shame
An empty glass for the ghost I chase

In trembling fear we take the breath
For the treasure I seek is the fear of death
We enter the gates as I fall to pray
There in the dirt I saw my grave

And I’ll feel it in my veins
Crawling under my skin
I’ll die alone within my shame
An empty glass for the ghost I chase

In my mind you’ll find the answer to the end of all
We’ve become the gun, become a god

There’s a secret to be told that they would not know
The hundreds of men are not the hope for the land

Peace speaks to all, they ripped our skin
And tore us through, taught us how to love

There’s a secret to be told that they would not know
The hundreds of men are not the hope for the land

Peace speaks to all, they ripped our skin
And tore us through, taught us how to love

With an empty glass
