Severed soul

Buried in a box
Below a home that burnt to the ground
Spare the ones who earn their death
Black ash for the rest

Worms linger
Leech fingered creature
Carving scars in the skin

Scapegoat, wading in the gene pool
Relapse
Settling in
Bow to your master

How high I would hold you
Adorned in the brightest display of suns
Beacon of hope, snuffed out in sorrow
Paradise undone

It takes everything to pull the teeth from the heart
When the bite is all that stings the senses back to life

Collateral damage
Face it
Embrace it
A seed planted in blood
It never belongs
We never belong
And like all rage, it's birthed in this place
Fate is nothing, until it's tested
Love is nothing, until it's gone

It's all inside you
The king, the servant
The garden, the serpent
It's all inside you
We were made to be broken
Fall into your fate, my chosen one

How high I would hold you
Adorned in the brightest display of suns
Beacon of hope snuffed out in sorrow
Paradise undone

Carriers so conditioned
To store the hate in the heart of the young
The act cannot be forgiven
Like father, like son

Collateral damage
Face it
Embrace it
A seed planted in blood
It never belongs
We never belong
Severed soul

The king
The servant
The garden
The serpent

And like all rage, it's birthed in this place
Fate is nothing, until it's tested
Love is nothing, until it's gone

It's all inside you
The king, the servant
The garden, the serpent
It's all inside you
We were made to be broken
Fall into your fate, my chosen one
It's all inside you
It's all inside you
It's all inside you
It's all inside you
