about

Our first release as a three piece

lyrics

Every move we made
We made the same mistakes
We followed you and we tried
(Every breath is crippling)
But it was always a lie

Everyone goes down
The same path
We're going to make a better life
(Every breath is crippling)
But it was always a mother fucking lie

Every move
Every step we take
Leads us a little bit closer to death
Inside I know we're destined to fall

Every rule
Replaced with pride and faith
Destroys everything we stood for
But I know you don't care at all

And I poured my heart
On those pages for you
And my blood
On the sands for a few
Men who I called my friends
Who helped get this letter to you

Every move we made
We made the same mistakes
We followed you and we tried
But it was always a lie

Everyone goes down the same path
We're going to make a better life
(Every breath is crippling)
But it was always a mother fucking lie

As we stand on top of these
Shoulders of dying giants
I raise my hands and beg for mercy
But it's not enough

As we wander endlessly
Towards the light of fire
Those who fell have hearts of gold

This is the place
Where my brothers died
Please walk towards the light
Please walk towards the light

Heavy hearts made of stone
These bullets break our bones
Please walk towards the light
Please walk towards the light

Our ghosts, they lay in the sand
(Now I have lost the light)
Our ghosts, they lay in the sand
(Now I have lost the light)
They lay in the sand!

It's not our fault
We didn't know any better
It's not our fault
We didn't know any better

Every move we made
We made the same mistakes
We followed you and we tried
(Every breath is crippling)
But it was always a lie

Everyone goes down
The same path
We're going to make a better life
(Every breath is crippling)
But it was always a mother fucking lie

We stand on the shoulders of giants
(A fucking lie, a fucking lie)
We stand in a line of defiance
(A fucking lie, a fucking lie)

Our ghosts, they lay in the sand
(Now I have lost the light)
Our ghosts, they lay in the sand
(Now I have lost everything)
Our ghosts, they lay in
The sand
