"Violence" lyrics

"Violence"

Love is standing on the edge
Wandering the unknown
And for once
Escape from the hollow
You're bleeding out your bitterness
Watering seeds with blood
You're harvesting dust
And hunger will follow

Never gonna be a God
Forcing on us hateful love
You took away the pride in my life
With a little bit of violence
Never gonna be a God
Forcing on us hateful love
You took away the pride in my life
With a little bit of violence

Turning fondness into pain
Tenderness is a ghost
Overwhelmed
By menacing shadows
You're wearing a sadistic grin
Whispering words of trust
Mouthful of scorn
That cannot be swallowed

But child in the night
Silence is coming
And you will repent your thoughts
Away from the light
Nightmares are numbing
And no one can hear you call

Never gonna be a God
Forcing on us hateful love
You took away the pride in my life
With a little bit of violence
Never gonna be a God
Forcing on us hateful love
You took away the pride in my life
With a little bit of violence

With a little bit of violence

Never gonna be a God
Forcing on us hateful love
You took away the pride in my life
With a little bit of violence
Never gonna be a God
Forcing on us hateful love
You took away the pride in my life
With a little bit of violence

With a little bit of violence
