Salvation In The City Of Angels

Young man where did you go?
To the promise lands we’d never know
Your savior’s here, here to show
What lies ahead in these feilds

A seed that could never grow
You helped the blind sheep find their way
To a faithless death in vain

This crown of thorns wont help you now
These nails drive through your flesh
Keep you bound

To a dream you could never achieve
On a cross of lost memories
To a book of lies from an innocent time
Signed in the blood of mortal enemies

Now rest your head, embrace your death
Listen to no reason or you will be mislead
Where have you gone with your wine and your bread
As the vultures feast off the top of your head
We offer this sacrifice in the names of the damned

Sickness endowed, breaking me down for you
We rise as a Judas creation, I will not be mislead
The death in my lungs, we have begun to decay
We feed on a failing kind, salvation in the city of angels

You took the only thing that ever really mattered to me
Threw it all away for your personal gain
You’re a murderer of class, affection, culture and love
A liar a disaster and a black hearted whore

You claim that you’re sorry, that you wish didnt ruin us
Well too late, you did, now its time to face the facts
You threw our family, sobriety, our future to now
Right down the drain and fucking moved on some how

I’ll see you live in torment
Ill prove your intentions are worthless
I’ll be your end of days
I will overcome everything

Bring forth this casualty, for I will sacrifice
Bring forth this vile creation, for I am the seventh son

Breaking down these desolate walls, that you create
So I hear, its like you wanted attention or meaning
The words say something godly, but now you want my protection?
Let’s hear their side

While I saw something else, yes I know what I saw
They’re resisting redemption, its all a race to erase your answers
While you’re fleing the questions

Like a monster we crawl, like a monster we crawl
Like a monster we crawl, like a monster we cant find peace
