"The Wake" lyrics
"The Wake"
Destroy everything cleanse
Wipe away the filth
Set fire to your waste
Burn everything
Back into dirt
Burn everything
Flood, drown the earth
Flood, drown the earth
It's what we deserve
Rehash the poisons
You breathe in the air
Tear down what you say your father created
Constructing buildings over buildings
Conceal history like a shameful scar
This world has lived for a million years with more to come
It's only a matter of time until you choke on your indifference
Struggling to breathe as the water fills your lungs
Trying hard to scream as it rises into your throat
The reckless, the careless
Will reign until the oceans rise
Flood, drown the earth
Flood, drown the earth
It's what we deserve
It's what we deserve
It's what we deserve
It's what we deserve
It's what we deserve
This world has lived for a million years with more to come
It's only a matter of time until you choke on your indifference
Struggling to breathe as the water fills your lungs
Trying hard to scream as it rises into your throat
Wake up
And save yourself
The sea will reclaim
What it worked to create
Wake up
Save yourself
Pick up the pieces
Ask for forgiveness

Looking back on the life that I lived
What I leave behind
Mistakes and memories serve to remind (they serve me to remind)
The reflection staring back from the mirror
No longer...
Within The Ruins - "Gods Amongst Men" They drew first blood
Just like I knew they would
Fearing what they don't understand
We are evolution
They drew first blood
Just like I knew they would
Fearing what they don't understand

The Browning - "Bloodlust" We will never die
We control the night
We will never die

Their blood courses through my veins
Sweeter than life itself
Bloodlust puts me in a daze

We Came As Romans - "Hope" Sometimes I feel so wronged
Like I've been held down
I feel my heart, like a rock, it's sinking
These days can get so dark
Like an eclipse in the sky
But I can rise above I can find the light
I can...
Every Time I Die - "It Remembers" I brought a rumor when I came down from the mountain
That spread quicker than the fire in your eyes.
Heaven won't let me in. I took my medicine.
Salt water couldn't quench my thirst at the fountain....
