The Human Abstract - A Violent Strike lyrics

rate me

<div class="showResultLinks">And out of the great beyond came a pitch-black multitude<br />

Here to choose the weakest of our race (hellhounds of the devil's own face)<br />

Confused a violent strike for something finally here to guide the way<br />

Our faith in order was a mistake<br />

So fearful and divine, and devoid of grace<br />

They try to run but there's no escape<br />

And the light decayed on that final day<br />

Fear crept up inside, night became something more than a trade<br />

And our slumber, a weakness that we all can share<br />

Death calling in the wind, "this is the end"<br />

I watched as a spiral took shape across the sky<br />

It was like a call from the other side<br />

What will you do now?<br />

The fires of hell are raining down<br />

Deep inside you're starting to shake, and slowly losing ground<br />

Everyone is dead<br />

Your bravery is useless, your bravery is useless<br />

I watched as a spiral took shape across the sky<br />

It was like a call from the other side<br />

And there I cried, out of control and paralyzed, as everything I once was died<br />

At the storm's dark mercy<br />

There's no way I'd be dying honorably<br />

If they came and took my life now<br />

No way I'd be dying honorably<br />

Regrets in tow, they didn't even stand a chance<br />

So hear me, the final lines have been drawn<br />

To build again, to fall again, it's worn me down to the last straw<br />

It took me down, took me, until I don't feel human at all<br />

Test me now, test me, I don't feel human at all<br />

So don't you go thinking that you find strength, without a trial or two<br />

These days have got me feeling like a god<br />

Hear me, the final lines have been drawn<br />

I held on so long to my home, until a tempest came<br />

She came in and swept it away<br />

Where's your bravery?<br />

What will bravery do for you now?</
