Wolves at the Gate
Album • 2022
I see the wind and water shifting at the change of the tide I hear the call "Abandon ship" as all the torrents collide As we are sailing into darkness Singing lullabies eyes closed I rest as I kiss the wave The sea is shaking and it threatens to drown You feel the violence as the waves pull you down Don't you think it's time for giving up hope? Barely holding to the end of a rope Listen up All is lost Left and gone Abandon ship Listen up All is lost Left and gone Abandon ship I see the wind and water shifting at the change of the tide I hear the call "Abandon ship" as all the torrents collide As we are sailing into darkness Singing lullabies eyes closed I rest as I kiss the wave Can't you feel the bones are fractured and worn? The hull is battered and the sails are all torn It's taking water as the oceans arise The ship is sinking and it's gonna capsize Listen up (Listen up) All is lost (All is lost) Left and gone (Left and gone) I see the wind and water shifting at the change of the tide I hear the call "Abandon ship" as all the torrents collide As we are sailing into darkness Singing lullabies eyes closed I rest as I kiss the wave Catch me singing in the eye of the storm I rest as I kiss the wave As I slip below the tide I fear the dark is closing on either side But still every twist and turn is slowly leading the way As I am holding on to hope of a love that won't fade away Still I face the great divide, I feel that death is closing on either side But still every twist and turn is slowly leading the way As I am holding on to hope of a love that won't fade away Still I face the great divide, I feel that death is closing on either side But still every twist and turn is slowly leading the way As I am holding on to hope of a love that won't fade away The waters explode Thrash and shake Drag me down Spit me out Spit me out I see the wind and water shifting at the change of the tide I hear the call "Abandon ship" as all the torrents collide As we are sailing into darkness Singing lullabies eyes closed I rest as I kiss the wave As You hold me in the eye of the storm I rest as I kiss the wave

Watch it burn Flames return I'm left with a eulogy Three years just wither in the background The last hour of Your misery pours out a final cry Listen to my words, make the pain depart (Pain depart) Watch it take ablaze in the weakest heart (Weakest heart) Such a violent eulogy is tearing my heart out (Tearing my heart out) With this doubt and mystery I'm falling apart now (Falling apart now) A final eulogy I carry doubts full of darkness that take away my breath On roads that lead to the valley of shadows and of death Eyes fade to grey and fall below Hеre lays a withered soul Such a violеnt eulogy is tearing my heart out (Tearing my heart out) With this doubt and mystery I'm falling apart now (Falling apart now) A final eulogy A bloody tree and empty tomb Sends roots below for life to bloom Every single word You said, It made the fear depart Every drop of blood You shed inside my weakened heart Bringing life to all the dead, I felt it burning My heart, it burns, it burns with love Such a violent eulogy is tearing my heart out (Tearing my heart out) With this doubt and mystery I'm falling apart now (Falling apart now) Beautiful eulogy A violent eulogy (Violent eulogy) Claims my victory (Victory) My heart, it burns, it burns with love My heart, it burns a beautiful eulogy

Hold fast hope Hold fast hope Brace for impact These dark days, they will grip and chain you Fight until the prison breaks Face the onslaught of the plague We will fight off the darkness even if it breaks our Flesh and blood will die as we rise above (Rise above) Shadows turn to dust as we rise above (Rise above) Rise, rise, rise above We rise, rise, rise, rise above Go Hands that I see holding on to me They are pierced from all the suffering on that cursed tree All this suffering momentary Harbingers for a weight of glory All my darkest sins and my misery (Misery) Thrown into the depth of the deepest sea (Deepest sea) Rise, rise, rise above We rise, rise, rise above Hold fast while bracing for impact, it's momentary Hold fast while facing the onslaught, it's momentary The Author and Finisher has claimed victory Defeated and destroyed the adversary Still coming for me Still coming so Fight like we're living out our last days All the blood and tears will just fade To a memory that just slips and fades away Fight like we're living out our last days All the blood and tears will just fade To a memory that just slips and fades away (Slips and fades away) Fight like we're living out our last days All the blood and tears will just fade To a memory that just slips and fades away (Slips and fades away) Rise, rise, rise above We rise, rise, rise, rise above

I'm counting down my sins, each one a grain of sand That's filling up a desert as they're falling from my hand I watch them slip away, like every passing breath That drags me to the chasm and faces me with death Am I left with silent sorrow? No tomorrow? Lost, unknown? And will You hear me Screaming out now All alone? All alone, alone This overwhelming weight that covers up my eyes Is telling me that mercy is a lie that's in disguise Just like a million stones are strung around my neck As I drown in the abyss I'm falling 'til I Feel the wings of mercy lift me up and carry me We are left with silent sorrow No tomorrow Lost, unknown Until You hear me Screaming out now For Your love For Your love Your love We are left with silent sorrow No tomorrow Lost, unknown Until You hear me Screaming out now For Your love For Your love Your love You're counting down my sins, each one a grain of sand That's filling up a desert as you hold them in your hand You carry it away and bear it all alone Every sin You've taken as Your own

Feel the pain of falling embers Fade and burn as I surrender Raise the white flag for my life Disarm the hate and heal the wounds of pain that's self-inflicted This mutiny has left behind I feel it burning on inside my bones (Inside my bones) All the wars that left me here to die, die (Left to die) Feel the pain of falling embers Fade and burn as I surrender Raise the white flag for my life Feel the rain that washеs over All the guilt that I had shoulderеd Raise the white flag for my life Oh, sing the song of victory that heals the broken rebels That kills the lie that's left behind I feel it burning on inside my bones (Inside my bones) All the wars that left me here to die, die Left to die (Left to die) Left to die (That left to die) Feel the pain of falling embers Fade and burn as I surrender Raise the white flag for my life Feel the rain that washes over All the guilt that I had shouldered Raise the white flag for my life Raise the white flag for my life Raise the white flag for my life Raise the white flag, sing it Sing victory Raise the white flag, sing it Sing victory

Piercing eyes into a dark unknown See what's hidden there (Hidden there) Terrified by beauty there enthroned Emptied and laid bare (Oh, save me) No, I'm fallen and alone I'm fallen and I'm fallen and alone Take it away (Away) Because I cannot bear to see it again (Again) My heart can't handle all the guilt in my life (My life) Oh, will You put it out of sight? Put it out of mind Out of (Sight) All my life is set before my eyes Every thought and deed Paralyzed by еverything revealеd Desperately I plead, oh, save me Though I'm fallen and alone I'm fallen and I'm fallen and alone (Oh, save me) Take it away (Away) Because I cannot bear to see it again (Again) My heart can't handle all the guilt in my life (My life) Oh, will You put it out of sight? Put it out of mind Out of sight Out of sight Oh, just take it, take it from me Take it away because I cannot bear to see it again My heart can't handle all the guilt in my life (My life) Oh, will You put it out of sight? Put it out of mind (Out of sight) Taken away (Away) Because I couldn't bear the weight of my sin (My sin) You took the shame and all the guilt in my life (My life) Oh, You have put it out of sight Put it out of mind Out of sight

The father of lies Is coming to steal Kill and destroy All my hopes of being good enough I hear Him saying "Cursed are the ones who can't abide" He is right Hallelujah, He's right The devil is preaching The song of the redeemed That I am cursed and gone astray I cannot gain salvation Embracing accusation Could the father of lies (The father of lies) Be telling the truth of God to me tonight? If the penalty of sin is death Then death is mine I hеar Him saying "Cursed are the onеs who can't abide" He is right Hallelujah, He's right The devil is preaching The song of the redeemed That I am cursed and gone astray I cannot gain salvation Oh, the devil's singing over me an age old song That I am cursed and gone astray Singing the first verse so conveniently over me He's forgotten the refrain, Jesus saves You redeemed me from the curse of the law You redeemed me from the curse of the law

I'm not singing this song like it's fading in the background I'm not singing this song like it's gonna be the last time The first note of the melody has rung out Too much of the divine The curse is the end of the verse with a thunderous voice But you draw the line Just silence the beauty And fill the world with pain Just violence and chaos Where all is lost and (Vain) My heart still echoes the words You burned inside that are endless The anthеm of Heaven But if you silencе this song The rocks will cry out The anthem of Heaven The chord rings but you wanna hear a new song A chorus to the dirt Discordant anthems of melodic cancer rise to fall before eternity You filled us with screams of symphonic pain You love the broken voice We're screaming, we're screaming Screams of symphonic (Pain) My heart still echoes the words You burned inside that are endless The anthem of Heaven But if you silence this song The rocks will cry out The anthem of Heaven I'm not singing this song like it's fading in the background I'm not singing this song like it's gonna be the last time, yeah When this poor broken frame Lies silent in the grave I'll rise to hear of the song of sinners saved My heart still echoes the words You burned inside that are endless The anthem of Heaven But if you silence this song The rocks will cry out The anthem of Heaven Worthy is the Lamb that was slain Worthy is the Lamb that was slain Worthy is the Lamb that was slain Worthy is the Lamb that was slain Worthy is the Lamb that was slain Worthy is the Lamb that was slain Worthy is the Lamb that was slain Worthy is the Lamb that was slain Worthy is the Lamb that was slain
