Thy Art Is Murder – Eye For An Eye lyrics

[Intro] A mighty flame erupts to the sky Raining down in ashes An arctic surge swells to the sand We mourn as heaven crashes The child weeps now for the loss of his only brother Entombed in a shell of ancient stone Cold and smothered [Chorus] Mother Earth Invoke the bones of all below Return to the surface anew To begin again Drain the oceans, swallow the shores Burn the forests to the floor The ruin of man, the Earth endures There will be nothing more [Verse 1] The rabid beast stalks the land Stole the body from the tomb Raped the sin into the lamb Taste the fruit of thy womb Now all is forsaken, all is undone Consumed in the fire of the setting sun The day shall come to pass As the dark of night falls The light slips from our grasp The plight of rapture calls There's no escape from what we’ve done The mother's redemption Reclaim your sons [Chorus] Drain the oceans, swallow the shores Burn the forests to the floor The ruin of man, the Earth endures There will be nothing more [Verse 2] And so the beast was turned on by the stock No longer the shepherd, now hunted by the flock Our blood shall nourish the fields in crimson and rust Eden to dust [Pre-Breakdown] As we destroy ourselves in endless cycles A patient killer awaits reprisal [Breakdown] Eye for an eye Reprisal Eye for an eye Reprisal [Chorus] Drain the oceans, swallow the shores Burn the forests to the floor The ruin of man, the Earth endures There will be nothing more Mother Earth Invoke the bones of all below Return to the surface anew To begin again [Outro] In the wind We fade away In the tides Sink and decay All we were shall be replaced All we've done shall be erased Set free the fire in your heart Mother Earth Take us back to the start Explain Request ×
