"Vengeance" lyrics

"Vengeance"

Force this revolution
Dark marks behind our masks
Senseless execution
No mistakes and no forgiveness

Forced to be petrified and aimless
Dissolution's revolution
We've succumbed to a violent shaking
We've become our breaking

I never wanted to be a victim
I thought I could rise above
No one prepares you for the answers
They make you but tear you apart

If there's no way out
Can we still break through?
Recover from confinement?
Could we we still be numb
To the only truth
That lies beyond us?
Will we get stabbed in the back
For what we chose
When we were powerless?
Buried in the sand
A shallow monument
To our existence

You were the home that I could love
I stood silent before your grace
No longer vying for connection
We've become a tragedy
'Cause every time we're close to God
You pray for madness
And now there's nothing I can say
To repel the burden

Let the venom out, end the suffering
Is it ever enough? No, it's never enough
Executioner, judge and jury
Dying to find the hearts that bleed
Wasting our forgiveness

Hanging down
Over us
Our confinement
Coming in waves
Wolves at the throne
Taking what we've denied them
Judgment will be known

If there's no way out
Can we still break through?
Recover from confinement?
Could we we still be numb
To the only truth
That lies beyond us?
Will we get stabbed in the back
For what we chose
When we were powerless?
Buried in the sand
A shallow monument
To our existence

You were the home that I could love
I stood silent before your grace
No longer vying for connection
We've become a tragedy
Cause every time we're close to God
You pray for madness
And now there's nothing I can say
To repel the burden

Let the venom out, end the suffering
Is it ever enough? No, it's never enough
Executioner, judge and jury
Dying to find the hearts that bleed
No mistakes and no forgiveness
