lyrics

I can't
I can't
I can't contest
I bow before a god of flesh

And so you give your service
Sacrifice pick the flesh off the bone
Fall to your knees and pray for instruction
A god made of flesh stands before you
And it hungers only for power
Oh merciful god
How you fell so unjustly to grace us all

My body, willing
My body, broken
Blood sacrifice
Been chosen
Another pawn can't make moves on your own
Strings tighten
You puppet
Human sacrifice, beg to atone

With one hand make us think you give freely
With the other you taketh away
My faith dried up, I'm empty and aching
I'm barely bleeding through this carapace of stone

And as I lay under the sky (Tomentum Aeternum)
The stars grow dark (Tomentum Aeternum)
And life starts to fade
Cut open, gutted (Tomentum Aeternum)
Eviscerated
Color slips from vibrant to grey (Tomentum Aeternum)

Not like you

Beaten
Broken
Under a cloudless sky

Beaten
Broken
Left in the dirt to die

Tomentum Aeternum
Tomentum Aeternum
