SCAITHE - Mara
текст песни

The walls of this house are burning
Faces I’ve known melting away
Figures in the dark dance around me
They warn me not to look in the doorway
Because some things weren’t meant to be seen

I woke up defeated
I peeked out of my shell
Filled my lungs with a sickness
Then crawled right back up again

Slithered into your wasteland
Bought everything you sell
Found myself in your eternal garden
Couldn’t see the tree from miles away
From miles away...
I held a hand only god could give me
Until you carved off my wings

I woke up defeated
I peeked out of my shell
Filled my lungs with a sickness
Then crawled right back up again

I should’ve been sleeping with one eye open
The promised land was just a den of snakes
I wear the horns only you could give me
I will hate you until my final days
Used up like a whore, cast down and thrown away

I woke up defeated
I peeked out of my shell
Filled my lungs with a sickness
Then crawled right back up again

Five years of building what I can’t have
The life I loved just ash and scabs
All warmth and safety were a lie
God isn’t in this room tonight
So take my hand and turn away from the light
