lyrics

SHACKLING THE LONG USURPED

Caged in barbed wire
Like animals penned
Trapped in "safe" havens of human dissent

Dumbfounded that it's come to this
All that disdain for the so called insane
Dragging the corpse of your "so sure" reality
Completely fucked in this nightmare

Cut deep by the odds
Thought your trust would ultimately save you
Your heart dies as you watch your children starve
Crawling through the dank shit & despair
Praying to your god
The tragic flaw of your imagination's figment
You've denounced all the signs & now you plead "why?"
Shackling the long usurped

In shame you grovel on battered knees
Your soul a petty coward
Betrayed by the hollow depths of your beliefs
And their worthless promise
Choke on the words of your barren honored pride
Your failed insight is death deserving
Embrace your punishment, drown in the cruelty
As your "hand me down faith" collapses

Cut deep by the odds
Thought your trust would ultimately save you
Your heart dies as you watch you children starve
Crawling through shit & despair
Praying to your god
The tragic flaw of your imagination's figment
You've denounced all the signs but now you realize
Shackling the long usurped

As time harvests the worthless & weak
Drink the fluid of agony's spoils
You chose safety over liberty-Dark Force Fodder - Dark Force Fodder

Pure torture soaks the carnal ground
Fear & anguish the very air to be breathed
Chains from conception materialize-Dark Force Fodder - Dark Force Fodder

Impaled on solution
Stabbed with decline
Force fed with darkness
A shattered spirit crucified

Cut deep by the odds
Thought your trust would ultimately save you
Your heart dies as you watch your children starve
Crawling through stagnant shit & despair
Turning on your god
Still sure to blame something nonexistent
You denounced all the signs but now you realize
Shackling the long usurped
