"BLOOD GODS" lyrics

"BLOOD GODS"

I'll close my eyes and walk into a burning house
Straight into nothingness

Rush the spirit through my veins
And justify the echoes of the days
When the sun smiled upon my face

I took over everything
Lifted a halo over my name
Washed myself in the pouring rain
And started over again

My head's a haunted temple
A preacher drowned in his sins
No matter what I believe
My faith torn me limb from limb

I came undone upon the pale moonlight
Knowing that I'm just trying to run outta sight
Blood Gods lifted me up to overthrow
This old game is singing the dying song
Set fire to the throne

Run towards the epiphany
The heights that you could never reach
Dive straight into the rabbit hole
Until you know it all
Bend your reality

The truth sounds so cynical
It's like we're walking on the burning coals
I think we've lost it all

My soul is a snake
Painted in black shades
Circling creeping 'round its sleeping victims
Lurking in the dark to choke their faith

My soul is a restless burning flame
And I elevate my own lair
Bow to the lord of despair

I took everything that I could claim
I dug up all these graves with my own hands
To lay them all to rest and say
Justice over all
I am the king of my own throne
I'm out for more

I've scarred my face
I've scarred my name
Knowing that I'm just trying to run outta sight
And I can't play pretend
Let it all break and bend
Light it up and watch it burn
Set fire to the throne

Daze I fall into a daze again
My life won't ever be the same

Demons 'round my block
Haunting every soul
