Lamb of God
Album • 2009
This track is instrumental.
A sacred cash cow with sickly tits Dripping temptation for hypocrites To death she's beaten The prosperous endlessly stating the obvious Caught in your words, sever the knot this time Somebody show me their true face Face me once as I leave all that I despise Face me as I unleash this hate refined Indict the blameless Transparent designs Pathetic and shameless Crucified A legend in his own mind, enthroned by lies A cheap Machiavelli plots his demise Caught in your words, sever the knot this time Somebody show me their true face Face me once as I leave all that I despise Face me as I unleash this hate refined Face me as I leave all this far behind Face me as I unleash this hate refined What once gave life Now infested with plague The lamb lies with maggots Blinded, gagged, betrayed What once gave life Now infested with plague The lamb lies with maggots The corpse bloated with rage

You want to blame me for the way you hate yourself You think you can find who you are in someone else Criticize to better your relative positioning You've got a long way to go So go and weave your tale of woe Convincing yourself it's so You're so set to fail Somewhere you finally lost your way Only yourself left to betray A nameless heir apparent, paranoid despair You take great measure to appear like you don't care Precision and persuasion must precede the proper lie You lost it before you began So go and weave your tale of woe Convincing yourself it's so You're so set to fail Somewhere you finally lost your way Only yourself left to betray

Everything you've ever begged me to be Could never have meant any less to me Everything you've ever asked me to say It's so far away from the truth Fake messiah Stitches sewn in your eyes Fake Messiah Prophecy now denied Over and over and ever again Defending your insignificance Useless intent hidden behind your mask A coward's voice... Anonymous So far away from the truth Fake messiah Stitches sewn in your eyes Fake Messiah Prophecy now denied Fake Messiah Open mouth, drawing flies Fake messiah Prophecy now denied Generation failure Suspended in irrelevance Slit you wide open Just to see what you're made of So far away from the truth... Fake messiah Stitches sewn in your eyes Fake Messiah Prophecy now denied Fake Messiah Open mouth, drawing flies Fake messiah Prophecy now denied

Broken, Bones and the will Capacity to disappear in misery saves Soaking, Pain as a thrill, Hate to instill Compassion’s a cage Forgiving the father Read the story on my skin I’ll be the martyr Falling from his grace again Sunken, sooner or later We crawl our way back into our favorite hole Drunken, swallow the savior And follow him to hang from the highest pole Forgiving the father Read the story on my skin Tell me more about the man I should have been I'll be the martyr Falling from his grace again This is where the end begins

I can feel your fear and weakness I see my own in the mirrors of your eyes Carved into a corner hopeless There’s death ahead and doom behind There’s a bad storm blowing in And most of us won’t make it The wreckage of your past Means nothing now, forsake it The memories cripple you You’re torn apart, your doubt must Die It only fell apart ‘cause you let it Bled of all you had to lose Pick up the pieces with your broken Hands It only fell apart ‘cause you let it Bled of all you had to lose Pick up the pieces with your broken Hands Well there’s those that do And those that just do talking We’re all going through hell It’s burn or keep on walking The blackguards sing their shanty Pure death riding the wind Right now it’s do or die How will you choose to live The memories that ruin you You’re torn apart your doubt must Die It only fell apart ‘cause you let it Bled of all you had to lose Pick up the pieces with your broken Hands It only fell apart ‘cause you let it Bled of all you had to lose Pick up the pieces with your broken Hands You best belay self-pity Locked in devastation’s throes The noose awaits you swinging A blade of malice cuts the rope Hostility ensues, no attempt to repent Your struggles vindicate the illest of intent Die It only fell apart ‘cause you let it Bled of all you had to lose Pick up the pieces with your broken Hands It only fell apart ‘cause you let it Bled of all you had to lose Pick up the pieces with your broken Hands

And you may tremble before hell's gates You may watch as the heavens fall And you may slight the hands of fate You may heed the siren’s call And you may reach every golden shore Witness repent in the heathen And you may dance in the sands of the war You may sleep in the cradle of Eden Betrayed your prophets Dead seeds buried deep An army of none We’ll prey on the weak And you may walk through the river run dry You may strike down the giant with stone And you may never again speak a lie Confess every sin and atone And you may drink from the infidel’s blood As their civilization collapses You may rejoice in the cleanse of the flood And stare into the face of apocalypse Betrayed your prophets Dead seeds buried deep An army of none We’ll prey on the weak You will not comprehend Or find words that will describe The will of God and man Until you watch someone die Betrayed your prophets Dead seeds buried deep An army of none We'll prey on the weak

Then you wake… Another body bag, pathetic, Picture frame obituary faded in the attic A shadow of someone you used to be You’ve seen so many in these flames And swore that you’d never become the cliché A long forgotten memory And when you wake… Everything you ever wanted Everything you never had Everything learned forgotten and dead Everything turns to nothing Another day, a little dirt for the grave Is it worth everything that you gave What a beautiful way to waste away Consumed by dependency A lesson in despondency A long forgotten memory And when you wake… Everything you ever wanted Everything you never had Everything learned, forgotten and dead Everything turns to nothing And then you wake… How quickly the master Turns into the slave Slowly succumbing more Every dying day Everything you ever wanted Everything you never had Everything learned forgotten and dead Everything turns to nothing

Sermon sung me slow to sleep Faster if I had a choice With every breath another death Still so in love with your own voice Idle threats to hide regrets Excuses serve to bide the time Cover tracks, double back We summon silence so divine Greeted with a thundering absence of applause Choke on your own words Lies are venom in your veins Burn from the inside And never speak my name Jesus complex, gag reflex Trigger happy redundancy No thrill, no chase, no saving grace Hypnotic in monotony Loaded with a salt rock shot You say you’re everything you’re not What might have been is all you’ve got From here and now you’re dead to me Greeted with a thunderous absence of applause Choke on your own words Lies are venom in your veins Burn from the inside And never speak my name Nothing will ever erase Or undo your disgrace A lonely self-embrace They’ve long forgotten you Still cling to what it was A lost and hopeless cause Forever mourning your loss They’ve long forgotten you Murdered slowly in minute increments of time Pissing up a rope Another moment passes by Choke on your own words Lies are venom in your veins Burn from the inside And never speak my name

Humanity’s a failed experiment Walking the path to extinction Spinning its wheels endlessly Grease them with oil and uranium The earth will shake and the waters will rise The elements reclaim what was taken The skyline is set ablaze with regret Ashes cover a falling silhouette The city will reap what it’s sown and ignite Watching as the city burns tonight Blindly consuming mass manufactured faith Mankind is a festering parasite Relentlessly draining its host dry Nailing belief to a cross of genocide The elements reclaim what was taken The skyline is set ablaze with regret Ashes cover a falling silhouette The city will reap what it’s sown and ignite Watching as the city burns tonight Only after the last tree’s cut And the last river poisoned Only after the last fish is caught Will you find that money cannot be eaten And everything becomes irrelevant as the sky tears open Fire rains down, the fourth world comes to an end Push the button light the match, feel the fault lines detach Crosshairs in the evening light I sit and watch the city burn tonight The city burns tonight
