"Leviathan I" lyrics

"Leviathan I"

But there is no silence
My thoughts drowned out
(Screeching and grinding)
(Screeching and grinding)
(Screeching and grinding) resonates...
Screeching and grinding resonates through a hollow shell
There is no great wisdom
There are no answers

I close my eyes, but all I see is red
I bite my tongue, but all I taste is blood
Once again they set their traps, set their hooks, deep in my head
Too naive to think these forked tongues would themselves devour

I close my eyes, but all I see is red
I bite my tongue, but all I taste is blood
Once again they set their traps, set their hooks, deep in my head
Too naive to think these forked tongues would themselves devour

Show me war
Show me pestilence
Show me the blood red hands of retribution

And the abyss stares back
Leviathan I
And the abyss stares back
Leviathan I

To break their hold, strip the flesh straight from their bones
Cast their limbs into the gears of the beast
Bring this monstrosity to its knees
Cast their limbs into the gears of the beast
Bring this monstrosity to its fucking knees
Eye for an eye

(Eye for an eye)
(Eye for an eye)
(Eye for an eye)
I'll send this world blind

Show me war
Show me pestilence
Show me the blood red hands of retribution

And the abyss stares back
Leviathan I
And the abyss stares back
Leviathan I

Under a blackened sun
Beneath a hunter's moon
Seething

Dogs of war, they call for blood but it will not be mine
Dogs of war, they call for blood but it will not be mine
