“Take This City” +


Your eyes fixate as the lights attack the darkness with one swift motion
A symphony of cracking bones is abruptly interrupted when-

Seething souls and callous hearts are woven together with love
They’re gaining on you with every pause between every breath

Our late brother has found a new home under the earth
Now watch as the flames tease the toes of the sky tyrants

Only cursed souls can truly see those bloodthirsty fangs, gnashing
Claws ripping at the flesh of the metropolis, only poisoning themselves

Why conquer the beaten; the fallen have nothing to offer but excuses
This dismal of all days has become a funeral, courtesy of this giant rock

Driven mad with rage and forced to retaliate, our fates are sealed
The ocean beckons and all we offer are just thoughts scribbled upon paper
