On a sea of nails in self doubt
I push this feeling further into this sound
In all my failings, I could never hide
The truth of pain that left me broken, deep on the inside
We are the future, we are the lie
Trapped in holy innocence, we only wish to thrive
We are the nightmare, buried deep in your mind
We are the travesty, sweetened with your pain
Alive, alive, we're barely alive
Alive, alive, we're barely alive
Shepherds spreading death
Dragged outside, shot in the head
Dragged outside, shot in the head
A million faces in a bloody shroud
I hear their voices calling me to put you down
Covered in your blood, drowning in my hate
I closed my eyes in all the pain
I cover my eyes, I covered your eyes
I covered my eyes
We are the cancer eating at your mind
We are the ministries for all of your crimes
Shepherds spreading death
Dragged outside, shot in the head
Holy maimed again
Dragged outside, shot in the head
Dragged outside, shot in the head
Holy maimed again, holy maimed again
On a sea of nails, in self doubt
I push this feeling further into this sound
In all my failings, I could never hide
The truth of pain that left me broken deep on the inside
