[Verse 1]
Home in the absence of light
Hammer the rusted nail deeper into my side
Fill me with needles and thorns
Down to the bone, the grey turns to black
The soul of the shepherd exposed
Ruin
Lay the cities to ruin
Let the lifeblood envelop the sea
In crimson and chaos
We are reborn into suffering

[Chorus]
Saltwound
Every night is a night that I wish would end
Saltwound
Every fight is a fight that I cannot win

[Hook]
God is a lie and man is a failure!
God is a lie, and man is a failure!

[Verse 2]
I wanna reach out
(But there's a disconnect)
Between the ones we love
(And the ones we neglect)
The lines gone dead
(But the receivers tone beats the silence)
No operator
(Just hardwired to a world of violence)
[Bridge]
All I ever wanted was the truth
That the hell in me, is the hell in you!

[Breakdown]
Here's the fucking truth
Sometimes people should just fucking die
Stop pretending that's wrong, stop pretending it's a lie
Sometimes people should just fucking die
Stop pretending that's wrong, stop pretending it's a lie

[Chorus]
Saltwound
Every night is a night that I wish would end
Saltwound
Every fight is a fight that I cannot win
