Bruised And Bloodied

(альбом: Si Vis Pacem, Para Bellum - 2020)

Add meat to the body, abandon your own welfare
Feel safe in the knowledge that you'll save yourself with prayer
Disgrace everybody then bask in the afterglow
If I beat myself it seems like you just don't care at all
It's really fucking pitiful

I'm not asking to pray about
Parade around
Or save somebody
Lost the courage, I'm craven now
You're way too proud
All bruised and bloodied

Conceit so lovely you've led me into despair
This rape and pillage of all things that I hold dear
Deface my body with gifts that you now bestow
When I need somebody it seems like you're just not there at all
It's really fucking pitiful

I'm not asking to pray about
Parade around
Or save somebody
Lost the courage, I'm craven now
You're way too proud
All bruised and bloodied

These disembodied emotions are all laid bare
So please tell me, when will I wake from this new nightmare

I'm not asking to pray about
Parade around
Or save somebody
Lost the courage, I'm craven now
You're way too proud
All bruised and bloodied
