The Seeker
Searched for a preacher but instead I found a raven
Heathen sung a wasted song in wicked key
He crowed a riddle with a tremble at the moral
Truth will get you nowhere lies will set you free
Yeah! Yeah Yeah Yeah
The meaning carved a scar too deep to know for certain
Bird took to the sky and left me choking on the verses
Deceit is gold, truth never told so she's the hunted
Beloved mother with her arms around the serpent
Yeah! Yeah Yeah Yeah
Yeah Yeah Yeah
Oh yeah
Follow the sound
Look towards the ground
Her demon seed that lies inside won't be forsaken
Absence of the map that can reveal where treasure taken
The bloody trail she left is banquet for the glutton
Metallic spice escaped, her iron will awaken
Yeah! Yeah Yeah Yeah
Yeah Yeah Yeah
Yeah! Yeah Yeah Yeah
Yeah Yeah Yeah
Alright
Follow the sound
Look towards the ground
Redeem her, go seek her
She knows not what she does
They'll kill her like the lamb
Redeem her, the seeker
She knows not what she does
They'll kill her like the lamb
She's so far away like a reverie
She thinks she's alive, but she wastes away
Carries lies like a heavy load
She opens her eyes for the fatal blow
She feels it inside
Raven amplified
Carries lies like a heavy load
Carries lies like a heavy load
She carries lies 'til they explode
There's no mercy
Hot she's burning
They're all about to find it
But she stumbles on the wording
Crow cries liars
There's no mercy
Hot she's burning
They're all about to find her
But she stumbles on the wording
There's no mercy
Hot she's burning
They're all about to find her
But she stumbles on the wording
Heathen sung a wasted song in wicked key
He crowed a riddle with a tremble at the moral
Truth will get you nowhere lies will set you free
Yeah! Yeah Yeah Yeah
The meaning carved a scar too deep to know for certain
Bird took to the sky and left me choking on the verses
Deceit is gold, truth never told so she's the hunted
Beloved mother with her arms around the serpent
Yeah! Yeah Yeah Yeah
Yeah Yeah Yeah
Oh yeah
Follow the sound
Look towards the ground
Her demon seed that lies inside won't be forsaken
Absence of the map that can reveal where treasure taken
The bloody trail she left is banquet for the glutton
Metallic spice escaped, her iron will awaken
Yeah! Yeah Yeah Yeah
Yeah Yeah Yeah
Yeah! Yeah Yeah Yeah
Yeah Yeah Yeah
Alright
Follow the sound
Look towards the ground
Redeem her, go seek her
She knows not what she does
They'll kill her like the lamb
Redeem her, the seeker
She knows not what she does
They'll kill her like the lamb
She's so far away like a reverie
She thinks she's alive, but she wastes away
Carries lies like a heavy load
She opens her eyes for the fatal blow
She feels it inside
Raven amplified
Carries lies like a heavy load
Carries lies like a heavy load
She carries lies 'til they explode
There's no mercy
Hot she's burning
They're all about to find it
But she stumbles on the wording
Crow cries liars
There's no mercy
Hot she's burning
They're all about to find her
But she stumbles on the wording
There's no mercy
Hot she's burning
They're all about to find her
But she stumbles on the wording
