Lyrics
So let me take this medicine
To quench my love for violent things
My swan song will
Be like a bullet laced in anger
As the razor cuts the soft spot on your heel

(Each breath) it's getting slower
(This war) it's getting harder
To fight by myself
(Sick waves) a bitter fashion
(Rip down) this shield that I have
Tears rain from above

Do you see the life I lead?

So follow me into the sun
And I will bleed the poisons dry

These bayonet scars never cease
To blind the light, shed from the beast
And all we do is hate

(Eyes shot) from constant visions
(Angels) are rendered useless
Good has lost its heart

Do you see the life I lead?

So follow me into the sun
And I will bleed the poisons dry

For you [2x]
(For you) [3x]

Bite to break skin
Don't give the secret
My stoic face
Beating with passion
The Phoenix will die
Inside the firestorm
I am the son
Follow my footsteps
Follow my footsteps
