Archaic Wounds Lyrics

A heartless cutter of flesh, a prodigy of pain
He the father of unending lies
A plot to steal your breath again
And for his effort, no one knows
Just who he'll take away
The crying, the bleeding, the ones who cannot take
The prospect of tomorrow, a future they can't escape
And once again they're led into the cage to wait

Archaic wounds leave us wanting
Another life, another calling
Archaic wounds never healing
Forgotten dreams, forever bleeding
Bleeding out

Who will be the first to realize the end is here
And who will be the first to drown themselves out of pure fear
Or will you stay and place the noose around your neck?
Repeating, defeating, a haunting anxiety
Brooding and concluding, a death cult society
Who is the one who grinds our souls into the dirt?

Archaic wounds leave us wanting
Another life, another calling
Archaic wounds never healing
Forgotten dreams, forever bleeding
Bleeding out

The lying, and the stealing, the ones who took away
The prospect of tomorrow, a future we can't escape
And once again we're led into the cage to wait

Archaic wounds leave us wanting
Another life, another calling
Archaic wounds never healing
Forgotten dreams, forever bleeding
Bleeding out
