Lyrics
Hope is a thief dressed in blood
Overflown, naivity's like lightning
Shadows sway, they tick and turn relentlessly
I tend to put the blame on myself
Cause I'm a natural born pessimist
And I'm going under the hurt that we both share
Engrave us to persist
Tearing us apart
Blame my faith in sorrow
Call me acolyte
I think about, think about, think about the end
This is the price that we pay (we all pay)
Hope is a thief dressed in blood
Bearing a torch
Love is just fear drenched in amphetamines
Upheaval times will resolve
Unraveling you, unraveling me
Tearing us apart
Blame my faith in sorrow
Call me acolyte
I think about, think about, think about the end
I guess we will never know
Who reaped and who ended up sown
Time is running out
You wasted air
Worshipping the end
Impatient pulses
Restless hunger, inner voices
We're poison in the well
Pay tribute to sadness
Swallow the misery
Tearing us apart
Blame my faith in sorrow
Call me acolyte
I think about, think about, think about the end
I guess we will never know
Who reaped and who ended up sown
Time is running out
You wasted air
Worshipping the end
Life passed us by
In a flash of irrelevance
