"Vermin" lyrics

"Vermin"

You reapers
You demons consume the blind
Cloaked in gold
Burning futures, destroying lives

So come and take it
Effluent miasma growing

You creatures
Skin of humans, souls of ghosts
Shrouded motives
Pages torn tied into ropes

So come and take it
Jaws open, a negligent nemesis
So come and take it
A monster, a nightmare descending again

You will never take it away, the flame
That burns alive inside these cages that shape us

Vile seekers
The vermin of humankind
Exacerbating
Futility and wringing it dry

So choke and taste it
Jaws open, a negligent nemesis
So cold and graceless
A monster, a nightmare descending

You will never take it away, the flame
That burns alive inside us and rages
You will never take it away, the flame
That never dies, only morphs and shapes us again

Into life
This suffering retired
Into light
Far gone, beyond the reach of their crooked sights

You will never take it away, the flame
That burns alive inside us and rages
You will never take it away, the flame
That never dies, only morphs and shapes us again
