for a common enemy
size my heart and break the mold
drain the warmth that fights the cold
nail me up and crucify
comfort lost when tears run dry
sacrifice to satisfy
Crush my will with eyes of stone
Tap the core and let it flow
Down to paint a crimson floor
Take it all then take some more
sacrifice is what I'm for
break me down by the force of your words
crumbled and shattered the parts of my world
distance has echoed and turned
all that was built is consumed and compromised
steal the breath of life
see me cut open i’ve finally become what i fear
siphon my soul as my thoughts disappear
hypnotize all that i hear
crawling from under the scars i try to hide
steal the breath of life
tie the stake that has
rapidly gone underground
nothing has proven a cure for the poison of sound
