lyrics

I channel the rage, I soak in the loss.
I nail both my hands to this burning cross.
I tear at the throat, I peel back the skin.
I demolish the house, where memory lives.

I am the darkness inside the flame,
I am the stone that sharpens the blade.
I am the shadows behind the sun,
I am the pain inside of love.

I strike at the night, I shout at the dawn.
I sleep in the wreckage, it’s where I belong.
I grind up the bones that litter the sea.
I swallow the river that runs through your dreams.

I promise the world, I give you the void.
I sing with conviction, to silence your voice.
I start at the end, I end at before.
I am the cause of god and of war.
