"Children Of Manus" lyrics

Come forth I condemn you to all bear witness
To the miracle of manus
Now I am lost, my humanity spent
What lies in wake, we are the children of manus
We are the children of manus

Gotta ask myself, am I the only one?
Left to roam the abyss, cast out to the cold to lay in guard for my sins
Must I pace these empty halls searching for solace within?
Or just rekindle the fires that allow me to breathe again?
I am alone

Breathe in the hate
Cause I'm a self destructive optimist too content to change
No more than blood and bone, merely mortal after all
I fear my moral code is getting the best of me

And now I'm nothing but a shadow of my former self
You just can't fathom how it feels to wanna be someone else
I'm done, feeling like I don't belong
I'll take my place as the heir to this hollow throne
Still made from blood and bone

An empty empire built of souls and cinder
But I would rather know happiness than be this alone

You wanna know a secret?
We're all alone

Breathe in the hate
Cause I'm a self destructive optimist too content to change
Just another vacant soul
Am I human after all?
I fear my moral code is getting the better of me

I have nothing left to give
Now I'm falling further, further into the blight

Come forth I beg you to all bear witness
To this my sonnet of sadness
Now I'm undone, my morality lost
Let it be known I am the true face of manus

From this day forth I'll be the true face of manus
And for what it's worth
I am alone
