Hunted

Hold my hand as we go down
Into the deepest dark, we'll drown
A world flooded in tears
The flowers disappear
Into the dark, we shrink away
Lying for another day
In the dark we wait
For the day to break

Oh, Jesus come, we have been undone
We need you near, banish all our fear
Footsteps on the left and the right
Soldiers dressing in dark delight
Did you think it was metaphor?
Something to ignore
Reaching claws pull back their smiles
Eyes gaze out with empty denial
They can't see you, all they see is
The funeral pyre
The mirror god of worshiping
People reflect what they see
Build into their own new myth
On the backs of the innocents
I will deny them, cut them off
I will not bow down to their god
Execute me, drop by drop
The blood will flood out and swallow you up

Jesus Christ, destroy the night
Avenge our blood on the earth

So drink up the darkness, disaster awaits all you fools
And hit the ground with your bellies full
And I know that you know the clock is running out
There's not much time left now
