Sounds of Broken Bells
from I, Gvilt bearer by THIS GIFT IS A CURSE
lyrics
Trapped in like rats.
This is a sinking ship, so swim for shore,
spread the word like a fucking plague.
With this sinking ship we all will drown.
From beneath - hear us cry:
“Even the greatest Light will cast a shadow,
behind the one-eyed Son, bringer of Deaf.
He pointed to the sun, and burned their eyes out,
as blind sheep always follow...”
We’ll stand in line, to take the fall, to be your Scapegoat.
We stand in line, as it breaks, to be the Mistake.
We’ll stand in line, to take the fall, this is the Gift you gave.
We stand in line, as it breaks, we will be Silence
We are your “Mistake”.
We are your “Mistake”.
Bare the whiteness of the lost, this is a coming storm.
From the bottom - hear them cry:
“Even the greatest Light will cast a shadow
Burn their chapels, tear their sun
Even the greatest Light will cast a shadow
Hang the Shepherds, hang Them high.”
Even the greatest Light will cast a shadow
Hang the Shepherds, hang Them high.”
Hang Them high.
“Oh, the “living soul” lives for their Sun,
but even the greatest Light will cast a shadow.”
This is a sinking ship, so swim for shore,
spread the word like a fucking plague.
With this sinking ship we all will drown.
From beneath - hear us cry:
“Even the greatest Light will cast a shadow,
behind the one-eyed Son, bringer of Deaf.
He pointed to the sun, and burned their eyes out,
as blind sheep always follow...”
We’ll stand in line, to take the fall, to be your Scapegoat.
We stand in line, as it breaks, to be the Mistake.
We’ll stand in line, to take the fall, this is the Gift you gave.
We stand in line, as it breaks, we will be Silence
We are your “Mistake”.
We are your “Mistake”.
Bare the whiteness of the lost, this is a coming storm.
From the bottom - hear them cry:
“Even the greatest Light will cast a shadow
Burn their chapels, tear their sun
Even the greatest Light will cast a shadow
Hang the Shepherds, hang Them high.”
Even the greatest Light will cast a shadow
Hang the Shepherds, hang Them high.”
Hang Them high.
“Oh, the “living soul” lives for their Sun,
but even the greatest Light will cast a shadow.”
