Perpetua
Shame, in my brain
Made so plain
It's all the same
Fear is the stain
It's my pain, again
Wrestle or writhe
This is my tithe
To give up my life
My sacrifice
Stifle or seethe
On the back of the freed
These children of greed
Our enemy
Guilt is what you feel
They made you kneel
To know it's real
So, inside
The real lie
That you hide
Yes my love
You're right, dear
You're right, you're right
I've come too far to let them
Define my right
Wipe the blood from the wrist
Alight, alight
Stoke the flames of insolence
Defy
Ghosts in my head
In my bed, forever haunting me
Pierced between the bones
Ravaged by wild beasts
Feel the unreal
All your dreams, all your schemes
They're mine
I'm living off of glimpses of your darkened world
Ravenous, unclean
Ascending in a dream
They made me kneel
They made me kneel
Go kneel, go kneel
Go kneel
Start to feel
All your life, all your strife
It's mine, this time
And see
I see, that all your life
The bloody knife
It's alright, this time
Shame in my brain
Made so plain, it's all the same
So, inside
The real lie
That you hide
Yes my love
You're right, dear
You're right, you're right
I've come too far to let them
Define my right
Wipe the blood from the wrist
Alight, alight
Stoke the flames of insolence
Defy
Made so plain
It's all the same
Fear is the stain
It's my pain, again
Wrestle or writhe
This is my tithe
To give up my life
My sacrifice
Stifle or seethe
On the back of the freed
These children of greed
Our enemy
Guilt is what you feel
They made you kneel
To know it's real
So, inside
The real lie
That you hide
Yes my love
You're right, dear
You're right, you're right
I've come too far to let them
Define my right
Wipe the blood from the wrist
Alight, alight
Stoke the flames of insolence
Defy
Ghosts in my head
In my bed, forever haunting me
Pierced between the bones
Ravaged by wild beasts
Feel the unreal
All your dreams, all your schemes
They're mine
I'm living off of glimpses of your darkened world
Ravenous, unclean
Ascending in a dream
They made me kneel
They made me kneel
Go kneel, go kneel
Go kneel
Start to feel
All your life, all your strife
It's mine, this time
And see
I see, that all your life
The bloody knife
It's alright, this time
Shame in my brain
Made so plain, it's all the same
So, inside
The real lie
That you hide
Yes my love
You're right, dear
You're right, you're right
I've come too far to let them
Define my right
Wipe the blood from the wrist
Alight, alight
Stoke the flames of insolence
Defy
