[Intro]

Locked inside of this

Oppressive life

You've surrendered your mind

To its conformity


[Verse 1]

You lost all you once had to its fucking lies

Bringing those you loved down with you


[Pre-Breakdown]

It seemed like an eternity I was lost...

Lost in your lies

Striving for a breath of change

You would never give

Taught to enslave the ones who can't fight

Your way of life

This was not my choice


[Breakdown]

Give me a reason to look back on you

And defy my strength

Give me a reason not to smash your face in

You're worthless in my eyes


[Post-Breakdown]

On my own

I don't crave redemption

In your fucking lies

As you inflicted you could not give me solace

You're worthless in my eyes


[Refrain]

Sever it all from my thoughts the bloodshed the torment

Sever the memory

Sever it all from my thoughts the horror you gave me

Sever the memory


[Interlude]

I will not fall victim to you again


[Bridge]

Blinded with the fear

Searching for a new way

To lay the seeds of deceit

As you just fucking betray

Your actions soaked in blood

Just like the doctrine that you preach every day

Fuck your indoctrination

It destroyed all my hopes for you as I fell away

Away, away, away


[Verse 2]

Mislead and forced to serve

For your crooked faith

Bitter from your violent ways

Anger filled my every day


[Verse 3]

Rejected the notion of a god or a hell

Renounced your religion

I'll rely upon my self


[Outro]

Oppression was not the life for me

I could never follow blindly

So what's left for us

Hatred and so much bad blood

Leaving me with one choice

You must be severed
