Exhale the Locusts Songtext

von The Autumn Offering

I tried to bleed out, bleed out the sickness
With synthetic remorse
Like tempests they assail from the sky [(Haunting me, killing me. Will I remain?)]

And I'm sorry [(So sorry)]
For all I've done to you
In my hour of shame, twisting, turning blind, deaf
Waif-like and thinning
Go... Run away
Don't look back until your eyes bear the strain of new light
Exhale all of the sorrow I've brought unto you
Exhale the locusts

Exhale the locusts

Better off unfeeling numb and motionless
Frozen like a sleeping death
Cold mother You're gone
All I'm left with is my hate

No, with my blood opiate entwines her poison lips on mine
I'm better off in the lye, for I've got nothing anymore

Go... Run away
Don't look back until your eyes bear the strain of new light
Exhale all of the sorrow I've brought unto you
Exhale the locusts

Go... Run away
Don't look back until your eyes bear the strain of new light
Exhale all of the sorrow I've brought unto you
Exhale the locusts

The sun you've always known
A bleeding heart
Your Achilles heel
The sun you've always known
We fade away
