Eye for an Eye Lyrics


Words cut like jagged shards

And your house of glass is falling apart

You preach love but don't give it

Teach hate but don't see it

If there's nothing above

Then there's nothing beneath

But a fraud has to cut their teeth

Hiding inside your own skin

And now you're so absorbed

Are you even listening?

Words fallen on deaf ears

Eye for an eye

But you're the only one who's been left blind

Worlds apart

From the lives you crush

Hypocrisy moves from bone to dust

Spiritual fraud

Cleansed in the waters

Self inflicted stigmata

You're no saint, no faith to claim

A lifetime spent in vein

Hiding inside your own skin

And now you're so absorbed

Are you even listening?

Words fallen on deaf ears

Eye for an eye

But you're the only one who's been left blind

Oh father, forsaker

We felt the wrath of thee

Oh father, have mercy

Can you not turn the other cheek?

No longer walking the line

That exists in your own mind

Was it all for nothing?

Wasn't there always just... nothing?

Hiding inside your own skin

And now you're so absorbed

Are you even listening?

Words fallen on deaf ears

Eye for an eye

But you're the only one who's been left blind
