Fire Or Knife - The Amity Affliction

Why are we even breathing, if the only reason to exist

Is to stare skyward and put my hands together?

Then why am I even here, to serve a myth

And carry these burdens on my chest?

As it caves in and free will gives way

To the guilt of lost and misinterpreted verses

I can’t see the logic in falling to my knees

Where is the logic?

There is no logic!

I was blinded and inducted

Into a world that has no meaning

No basis for belief

And now they wonder why I’m seething

I’ll spit this in their faces, and burn their false pretenses!

On which they stand, the pulpit burying our youth

Beneath the tides of callous sands

No room to breathe!

No room to breathe

In the chambers of your guilt

Under a cross and devils' gaze

While you sit and wait to die

There’ll be no god in the cold night sky

There’s no god who can hear you

There’s no god who understands

Who understands

Regrets too often haunt us, again and again

Sometimes it seems so hopeless, but we cannot give in

When all our best decisions prove us wrong

And when, we’re only waiting for goodbyes

We’ve already given in, given in!

Already given in, given in!

Already given in!

We’ve already given in, given in!

Already given in, given in!

Already given in

But we’re never giving in!

There is no god who can hear you, just a sky full of stars!

The same stars you will be wishing on

When death comes to call on us

Call on us
