I drew blood from a stone

Walked the beaten track

I work my fists to the bone

And the world spits back

I won't die on my knees

But I'm tired of dragging my feet 'til they bleed

All I had came from within

And it's what they took from me

What goes around I know comes back again

Bleed the light from each day or there's hell to pay

Earned these scars with blood and bone

As above, so below

It's a cruel world but it's the one I know

No pity

What a tragedy

Reform

Rebuild

Face a world that shows no mercy

Drained

Burned the candle at both ends

Nothing to show when the light descends

Burned

All that's left is the breath in my lungs

You're taking names

I'm taking tongues

What goes around I know comes back again

Bleed the light from each day or there's hell to pay

Earned these scars with blood and bone

As above, so below

It's a cruel world but it's the one I know

Surrender your soul to nothing

To no one

Trembling masses

Lined up for judgement day

The reaper wants his toll but I won't pay

I won't pay

And all I have left is the breath in my lungs

What goes around I know comes back again

Bleed the light from each day or there's hell to pay

Earned these scars with blood and bone

As above, so below

It's a cruel world but it's the one I know

Know
