"Beneath The Surface" lyrics
"Beneath The Surface"
The stains on your altar have yet to dry
But power is something you have yet to find
It's the blunt stone that makes the sharpest knife
A higher state for a lower life
Finally reached the surface
But there is nothing here for us
Yeah
So we descend
And we're staying down
No face to our names
You embody everything we renounce
Rotting souls caught in the throws of a
Lifetime of endless cycles of abuse
Clawed to the surface just to retrace my steps
We cut our throats just to spite our own fucking necks
So we descend
And we're staying down
No face to our names
You embody everything we renounce
Tread carefully
This world could swallow you
Spit you out at the mouth of hell
Under no one
Under no illusion
You have turned us antihuman
Tread carefully
This world could swallow you
Spit you out at the mouth of hell
Under no one
Under no illusion
You have turned us antihuman
So we descend
And we're staying down
No face to our names
You embody everything we renounce

Arch Enemy - "To The Last Breath" Whispers curl in the serpent's breath
A masquerade in the arms of death
Truth is drowned in venom lace
Hidden face, a toxic trace
Eyes of charm, forged in frost
With every word truth got lost

After The Burial - "Catacombs" Sweeping barricades red with rust
Quiet this mind abandoned fields of thought
Searching for meaning, wandering in opaque
Closing my eyes, and let the color in
Quiet this mind ignite these fields of...

Enemy controlled designs
The light failing to incite deception
A new time is chosen for endless sleep
Anticipating Visions
A night less destiny
The day of endless light
