Misericord Lyrics


Thin the herd

Symphonies choking on eulogies

Hell bent

Desperately I've been searching for a reason to feed the hope that fails, the lies ring most true

In your defiance death laughs at his harvest

I dream of a grave, just deep enough to fill my days

Not the same, the god we pray

That beautiful dream drowning in dread

Filled to the brim with emptiness.

The sun has set

The door has closed

The myth of relief

It all ends so slowly

Nothing worth saving

Illuminate profound pathways of pain

Pessimistic gratification

Holding that so tightly, that faith which is most frail (Go with god)

Apathy induced agony, shallow drowning day to day (Go with god)

Thin the herd

Symphonies choking on eulogies

Hell bent

Desperately I've been searching, for a reason to feed the hope that fails, the lies ring most true

Your precious thoughts betray us all

May your death bring us peace

As innocent as Iron graves

Spite an ounce of faith for a pound of flesh

This sober violence we all adore

Your sombre comfort cut too fucking close

A plague with purpose

Cancer altruistic

Sweet merciful terror now dulls my senses

Embrace the weight of my conscious I feel the guilt as it shapes me

A messiah by no other name, hell bent glory bound, a savior of self loathing

Thin the herd

Symphonies choking on eulogies

Hell bent

Desperately I've been searching, for a reason to feed the hope that fails, the lies ring most true

In your defiance, death laughs at his harvest.
