[Truth]You sunk your hands in bloody dirtyBut it’s me who’s stained red You burnt them to a crisp But it’s my footprint on the ashes You blew off their heads But it’s my finger on the trigger You took took away their breaths And it’s me who has to pay A vague shadow in the distance A distant memory, long gone No longer about who I was But what you’ve made us become The rattle of a thousand shells of metal Parting like the sea at the tip of my boot Charred corpses frozen solid With your face forever printed on their eyes I can hear their voices Calling out your name The name I now carry A cursed legacy forever in me We’ve cheated death Thanks to us We have no tomorrow There is no truth No facts to grasp No veracity or principle Only interpretation |
