"The Path" lyrics

I swore an oath to myself I would never break
A bond in blood, a pact taken to the grave
I lit the spark and let the flames circle me
Watch it burn, it's the only protection I need

I'm too entrenched, I'm too far gone
I kept this vow through the eye of the storm
Some got burned along the way
Dropped like flies while the rest of us stayed
I stand in the rain under these clouds of grey
Watch the seed grow from nothing

I walk the path
Unchanged
Still chained
I held onto my wrath
Because it's ingrained
Blood stained

It still lives, and it bursts through veins
Scarred and bleeding, on broken wings
It can't be feigned, a sentence to the grave
Don't pray for me now, I've weathered the flames

[?]

I walk the path
Unchanged
Still chained
I held onto my wrath
Because it's ingrained
Blood stained

I walk the path
Unchanged
Still chained
I held onto my wrath
Because it's ingrained
Blood stained

I swore an oath to myself I would never break
A bond in blood, a pact taken to the grave
Maybe the gate needs a lock, imposters run amok
If they reach out their hand cut them off

I walk the path
Unchanged
Still chained
I held onto my wrath
Because it's ingrained
Blood stained

I walk the path
Unchanged
Still chained
I held onto my wrath
Because it's ingrained
Blood stained
