[Verse 1: Troy Sanders]

Bring forth the enemy

I want him to beg for his life

Bring forth the enemy

I want his neck on the knife

Incinerate the figurehead

Plan to erase you first

Flooding rain slathering

Bringing what you deserve


[Chorus: Brann Dailor]

Spirits warn that danger's coming

It's coming closer now

Pathways lit by fallen torches

Burn your insides out


[Verse 2: Troy Sanders]

Find me the remedy

Searching the ends of the earth

Bring me the entity

Snuff out the light in his eyes

Eliminate, obliterate

The image in my sights

Bring me the head

Bring me the head

Finish and erase


[Chorus: Brann Dailor]

Spirits warn that danger's coming

It's coming closer now

Pathways lit by fallen torches

Burn your insides out


[Refrain: Troy Sanders]

The whole world is a tragedy

Another crashing wave

Pinning you on the ground

Another living travesty

A never ending game

Fear is not easy to shake


[Bridge: Scott Kelly]

Free me

Bring me in

Heal my heart

Break my hands

What a lesson, God

Be in my heart

Be in my heart

And when I love anew

Let it be true

Let me shield

I need to leave the shadow


[Refrain: Troy Sanders]

The whole world is a tragedy

Another crashing wave

Pinning you on the ground


[Outro: Troy Sanders]

Darkness takes you

Darkness takes you

Down
