Death Defined

(album: Shrine - 2022)

We've all got demons resisting at every turn
But I won't bow down
To the voice that drowns me out
I've waited for safety
Within this sanctuary
Dead inside, for all to see
I buried it deep
The curse is real, I need to feel

Does death define or do I live with this curse?
God forbid, I make it worse
Give me a sign
Will I find peace in the end?
What have we left to defend
In the shadow of sanctuary

Let go of eternity
Your faith will fade with you
The dagger of silence now holds the truth
Dead inside, I breathe relief
The sinner in me is living without fear

Or do I live with this curse?
God forbid, I make it worse
Give me a sign
Will I find peace in the end?
What have we left to defend?

God forbid I make it worse
What have we left to defend?

Along the sculptures of the ancient faith
The truth is now as clear as day
Eradicate
Eradication of the ancient faith
The truth is now as clear as day
Eradication of empyrean
The truth is now as clear as day
In the shadow of sanctuary
