Exodus
A Silent War
Numb and silent
A victim of changed minds
Objectified the outside world
Now you're stuck with life inside

Dumb and violent
Waves of panic in your wake
Quarantine in suffering
Paranoias hand drawn fate

Laying in bed, feigning death
You feels its rattle shake
You bed and plea, clawing at yourself
For all of your mistakes

Silent is the war
Hallowed is this ground
Numbers rise as shadows fall
The powers claim control

Sick and frightened
The blame has turned on you
You point the finger, now the world laughs
Death, the single truth

Play the victim, blessed or damned
Tithe your fear away
Forbidden to leave your inner sanctum
To breathe another day
Laying in bed, begging for death
You feels its rattle shake
You bed and plea, clawing at yourself
For all of your mistakes

We leave behind the broken
And let this dark shadow geow
This nightmare fed by bloodshed
To bite the hand that feeds

Play the victim, blessed or damned
We pray to the machine
Bleeding for the paper that gives us light
Dark powers set the scene

Living, breathing, eyes awake
As you feel it all come down
Clandestine in your revelry
You wear contagion's thorny crown

Crawl back from anxiety
The rifts forever mend
As we give thanks to the bitter end
Puny mortals play pretend

Quiet and thetic
The dark angel spreads its wings
Feigning kindness for brotherhood
To keep the wolves at bay
Laying in bed, begging for death
You feels its rattle shake
You bed and plea, clawing at yourself
For all of your mistakes

We leave behind the broken
And let this dark shadow grow
This nightmare fed by bloodshed
To bite the hand that feeds
