Death By A Thousand Cuts

(album: OKURA - 2022)

My way, never ending
My will, never hollow
My faith, never broken
No escaping, no tomorrow

Your way, sent to test me
Your will, for me to follow
Your fate, set against me
Now I see you're killing me

Your lies
Are your truth
I'll die
Before I bleed for you

You were the hand that lit the flame
Now you're trying to erase me
You were the hand that led the way
Now you're trying to break me

Death by a thousand cuts
By the hands we trust
Bleeding in the dust
No truth in the lies we trust
In the knife you thrust
Bleeding in the dust

Some souls cannot be saved
Some fires cannot be tamed
Some lies reveal the truth
I see the real in you

You were the hand that lit the flame
Now you're trying to erase me
You were the hand that led the way
Now you're trying to break me

I took a step too far
A step into your dark
I saw inside your heart
Won't let you keep on bleeding me

(Won't let you keep on...)

I took a step too far
A step into your dark
I see inside your heart
And who you really are
When I had nothing left
You came and took the rest
I never would've guessed
That you would sentence me to

Death by a thousand cuts
By the hands we trust
Bleeding in the dust
No truth in the lies we trust
In the knife you thrust
Bleeding in the dust

Won't let you keep on bleeding me
