on a sea of nails
in self doubt
i push this feeling
further into this sound

in all this failing
i could never hide
the [bad word] of pain
that left me broken
on the inside

we are the future,
we are the lie
trapped in holy innocence
we only wish to thrive

we are the nightmare
buried deep in your mind
we are the travesty
sweetened with your pain

alive, alive, but barely, alive.
alive, alive, but barely, alive.

shepards spreading death
dragged outside shot in the head,
holy mained again
dragged outside shot in the head.

a million faces
in a bloody shroud
i hear their voices
calling me to put you down.

covered in blood,
drowning in my hate
i covered my eyes,
i covered your eyes,
i covered my eyes.

we are the cancer
eating at your mind.
we are the ministries
for all your crimes.

shepards spreading death
dragged outside shot in the head.
holy mained again.
dragged outside shot in the head.
dragged outside shot in the head.
holy mained again, holy mained again.
