Parkway Drive – Destroyer lyrics

[Intro]
(Destroy, destroy, destroy, destroy)
Destroy, destroy, destroy, destroy,
Destroyer!

[Verse 1]
We speak in lies, we speak in tongues,
We'll see our damage done.
We live in dreams, we rest in peace,
Content to sleep in our chains.
Seven trumpets sound their discourse,
Nine circles of our devise.
Messages writ within our columns of fire,
No life blooms from the ashes of ire.

[Pre-Chorus]
But our hearts beat faster,
And our heads hang low.
Still we kneel for the masters,
Filthy pigs all in a row.

[Chorus]
Black the sun!
Hide us from what we have become.
Black the sun!
Hide us from the monsters we've become.
Destroy, destroy, destroy, destroy!

[Verse 2]
We're all addicts hooked into a toxic culture,
Infinite growth in a finite world.
Empires of gold return to sand,
As silver tongues rust beneath the guilt of man.

[Pre-Chorus]
But our hearts beat weaker,
And our heads now roll.
Still we crawl for the masters,
As we beg for the killing blow!

[Chorus]
Black the sun!
Hide us from what we have become.
Black the sun!
Hide us from the monsters,
The monsters we've become.

[Hook]
We scar the earth to spite the sky,
Then burn the trees to feed our fires.
We are the blind leading the damned,
A wrecking ball,
In the hands of a mad man.

[Bridge]
Destroyer.
Destroy, destroy.
Destroyer.
Destroy, destroy.
Destroyer.

[Chorus]
Black the sun!
Hide us from what we have become.
Black the sun!
Hide us from the monsters we've become.

[Outro]
Black the sun!
Destroyer.
Black the sun!
Destroyer.
Hide us from the monsters,
We've become.
