Waiting with baited breath
Smelling the stench of death
Parting with a severed head
Now we're all left for dead

Sediment to the surface
They all start rolling now
Rearing the side they always hide
Deliver empty promise

Outside, inside, paralyzed by serpent's eyes
Transform, reborn, through the ashes we're reborn

We'll walk this line piercing through the righteous
Without a guiding light we've found our own
This fading glory is not now what it was
The path we choose we choose alone

Wasted is the breath of every word
Poisoned tongues and tempered veins
At the throat for endless feeding

Outlive, outshine, battle scar and battle cry
Transform, reborn, through the ashes we're reborn
