Hold on, my God is on its way
I swear help is on its way
I've been there before
dead on the inside
I've been lost without a cause
I've been left alone
without a place to call my home

Pick yourself up
as it pulls you down again
it's not its victory to claim
Controller, Controller
It is all it is
Build to bring you down
to turn you inside out
Controller and nothing more

As you're drowning deeper and deeper
the water reaches your neck
just hold on to your breath
my God is on its way

I've been there before
dead on the inside
I've been lost without a cause
I've been left alone
Without a place to call my home

Pick yourself up
as it pulls you down again
it's not its victory to claim
Controller, Controller
and nothing more

Hold on my God is on its way
I swear help is on its way
Hold on, my God is on its way
I swear help is on its way

I've been there before
dead on the inside
I've been lost without a cause
I've been left alone
without a place to call my home
But I've found EVERLASTING LOVE
PASSION, SHELTER, DIRECTION
I've found a KING above it all

Wait it out
for this one last time
Just wait it out
my dear just wait it out
For one day
O glorious day
our Father's promise
will bring us home again

glory to our God Almighy
glory to our Lord and Savior

#296: Embrasive Betrayal (Judas' Kiss) - Unto The Beast

Embrasive Betrayal (Judas' Kiss)
Unto The Beast

Genre: Deathcore



Edit note: this is a Christian band. The band's explanation for their song (and a general QA) can be found on their YouTube channel: http://www.youtube.com/watch?&v=Q1Xx6NDnBxg#t=265s

You all can run your mouths, my ears are slowly burning
You all can bite your tongue, my wish is your mouth sired and rotting
I'll have the last words when your teeth have grinded from the lying
You'll wish you never said a word my life has not recited.
You powerless shells of men, your words are worthless
You've all become stains to my ears, if you know what's good for you
you'll lie in silence

And if you try and speak again, I'll break a bat off against your grin
And if you ever try and speak again, I'll break a bat off against your grin

I'll put a bit in your mouth, and watch you choke on your words
(You spoke again)
I'll feed you your lies, and watch you choke on words, I'll give you something to truly despise
(I despise you)

I'll rip you from limb to limb disemboweling your wretched skin
I'll cut off your head and let it roll reconstructing your last perspective
The ice in your veins won't match the venom in mine
You look much prettier when you are dead

I'll take your eyes and lead you through the milky halls of the blind
I'll take your teeth and starvation will laugh as you try to eat from mine.

Who's got the last Now?

I will become your worst nightmare
You will be found dead in the night
No one will even come looking
Cuz no one will notice the plight

SIT. DOWN.
I wanna make this last

This is far from over, we have only just begun
Fee Fi Fo Fum, I smell the blood of a lying scum
Be he live or be he dead, I'll grind your bones to make my bread
Fee Fi Fo Fum, I smell the blood of a lying scum

I'll take your tongue and clean out your mouth with the blood from your lungs
I'll take your feet to a carpet of glass, this can't be solved with guns
You say you look back at the times we had fondly
I'll dice you to bits with the knives I have on me
You're life's about to end can't you see?

Fee Fi Fo Fum, I smell the blood of a lying scum
Be he live or be he Dead, I like you best without a head.
