Lyrics
Athens
...and the serpent comes,
Gliding in and out
Between the pillars of broken limbs
Fallen passions and dead hopes
Fill this hall of what once was.
As I float waiting blindly for your answer
I feel a sting in my eyes.
Time and time and time again
I've felt this before
And I believe now
That it’s you who twists the knife.
You made me perfect,
You made me blind,
You made me silent,
A balance waiting to fall
Did you forget what it felt like to make someone crawl?
Did you forget how it was to make someone bleed?
Did you miss the way a scream could be so beautiful?
And so you found everything you wanted in me.
Run your blade, take your time, look once more and I'll scream for you
...and the martyr falls,
Swinging from the noose
You trusted and put so much faith into.
You've lost your way and I've lost my nerve,
Come back to me and I'll blind you like you blinded me
