Khemmis - Bloodletting

Have we gone blind? I used to sing of finding light in the darkened skies above No fleeting glimpse All hope is bleeding from this shell The wolves are snapping at all sides Consuming fear The faith I held is fractured like a mirror Both sides reflect the darkness of the other Without the will to look inside We cut our wrists on the divide And I am bleeding out with no one there beside me No fleeting glimpse No hope remains inside this hell The noose is gripping at my neck with every breath Our life is drained We’re being punished for our crimes The executioner calls out a final time Offering wealth and wine, take my hand and twist the knife We’re depraved and reviled, welcoming eternal night The faith I held is fractured like a mirror Both sides reflect the darkness of the other Without the will to look inside We cut our wrists on the divide And I’m retreating now into the silence of the starless skies Into the starless skies Eternal rest Merciful death
