Salem

(앨범: Into The Past - 2022)

I never thought I'd see betrayal personal and up close
I never thought I'd bear the brunt of scrutiny in my home
I never thought I'd need a place to hide away from your ghost
I never thought I'd care enough to lose a piece of my soul

But a meteor in the sky revealed the truth to me
We share the pedestal of shame but I bear the mark upon me
Constant hysteria in my lucid dreams
Into the past beneath the gaze of infernal eyes

I know my pride can't hide these red lines
I know I can't hate the symbol they create
Your ghost lives by my bedside
I know I can't take the cold of Salem nights

I never thought a pearl would grow from rivers that run with blood
I never thought I'd be defined by sins that I can't outrun
I never thought the world know the horrible things I've done
I never thought I'd see the sign of treachery worn by one

But a meteor in the sky revealed the truth to me
We share the pedestal of shame but I bear the mark upon me
Constant hysteria in my lucid dreams
Into the past beneath the gaze of infernal eyes

I know my pride can't hide these red lines
I know I can't hate the symbol they create
Your ghost lives by my bedside
I know I can't take the cold of Salem nights
The cold of Salem nights

It's smoldering inside
My sense of pride
Their burning eyes upon me left it
A scarlet sign
I'm resigned to spend my life
Beneath the weight of pure resentment
No place to hide
I'd rather die
