  • Until Nothing Remains

    Let them fall from your lips on the ground
    And consume you in flames with your crown
    You can add up your ill-gotten gains
    And keep count till nothing remains

    Rise ye wolves up above the sound
    Through the choir of sheep as they drown
    Raise the banner of the proud and untamed
    Burn the kingdom down… until nothing remains

    Death throe dance pul in quite the crowd
    Cheering throngs of the scorned still unbowed
    The system’s dead and we spit on the grave
    Let it fucking rot… until nothing remains

    You hide in a sickness that leaves you unbowed
    Scorched earth policy friendships allow
    For your dreams and their failings to mount
    An assault on continous lies

    Let them fall from your lips on the ground
    And consume you in flames with your crown
    You can add up your ill-gotten gains
    And keep count till nothing remains

    When ashes remain
    Burn… ’til the truth is out
    Burn… down to hallowed ground
    Burn… and rebuild again
    Burn. Burn. Until nothing remains

    I will never believe them (lies)
    I’m sick of the weakness that controls me
    Now that I’ve fallen, I will not repent


    Bleed out all empathy
    This vessel has no spirit left to hold on
    To lies I’ve lived in full

    How long can I hold tight
    With every movement
    Tension binds and denies
    My true nature

    The balance has shifted
    Warped sick and twisted
    Grabbing at angels when I fall
    Because I am more than this idol
    Endless recital
    For all my demons to applaud
    I am free

    Hide myself from it all
    While every fear is
    Screaming night into dawn
    Until I find

    The balance has shifted
    Warped sick and twisted
    Grabbing at angels when I fall
    Because I am more than this idol
    Endless recital
    For all my demons to applaud
    I am free

    Do I have to believe them? (Lies)
    In order to attain fulfillment
    I have to succumb to (lies)
    All my inner fears that tear at me
    I will never believe them (lies)
    I’m sick of the weakness that controls me
    Now that I’ve fallen, I will not repent

    The balance has shifted
    Warped sick and twisted
    Grabbing at angels when I fall
    Because I am more than this idol
    Endless recital
    For all my demons to applaud
    I am free
