Scorched Earth

Hunters have lost the hunt
The wolves will be slaughtered
Bound and skinned and strung up
Their prey now trained to fight back
So bow down
Respect what you fear
This thin line has exposed all that you are
Every fire burns the strands of power that you stand for

The lies you feed to all you shackle tight
Will taste that much worse when spit back down
Your throat, I won't
Feel a thing for a king that failed me
Blank eyes, dead stare
Not an ounce of compassion we ever shared
No one will miss this barely veiled corruption

So let's burn this world down
And I'll feel better, now
It's high time to accept you lost this fight
Burn this world down
And I'll be happy, now
It's high time you knew that you lost this war

This crumbling foundation won't support a cabal of tyrants
Heed the tides and choose your side

Admit you sold your soul
Absolute power absolutely corrupts
Systemic cancer rains down

Burn this world
Carve out this cancer
Out this cancer
Out this cancer

Your hands will be severed by those you oppressed
