Lyrics
Pride feeds their blackened hearts.

And the thirst must be quenched to fuel hypocrisy

Cleansing flames is the only way to repent.

Renounce what made you

Words that kill

Would you speak them to me?

With your breath so still,

It makes me believe

The Sins never die.

Can't wash this blood off our hands.

Let the world fear us all.

It's just means to an end.

Our salvation lies in the Father's sins.

Beyond the truth,

Let me suffer now.

In my heart I just know that there's no way to light up the dark in his eyes.
