The Scourge We Wield Lyrics


have i been searching for the light?

wherever i go there'll be poison and blight

what am i so desparate to find?

is there a spark that causes the world to ignite?

i walk, i breathe to gorge my seed

with blood under my feet

i live, i breed, i gather heat

to satisfy my need

i came i saw i forced the world to follow my lead

mother did you know that i do not hear you

brother all your tears will be cried in vain (cause)

earthly shell and sky will bend to my will

plant and animal shall wither in my way

i carry light into the night the shadow is my foe

i confront with no foresight conclusive source of woe

go now, break the chain that holds you tight

it's time, cast of your scourge and fly

i turn around to look at my way

i see a path of death and decay

voice inside   that i would obey

be silent now, come whatever may

go now, break the chain that holds you tight

it's time, cast of your scourge and fly
