lyrics

The beast has come

“The kingdom suffers violence
So let the violent take it by force”
If the advantage is the whole world
Would I in exchange for my soul?

I did this for each of us
The water cries out a hallelujah
The distance is growing
But it’s not out of reach

I begged you for peace
And you offered the sword
I’ll bear the scar
I’ll return to the dirt
And I’ll see you in the morning

It feeds my own ends
If it would only rain
And clean my scabs
Cause I’ve been loyal and I’ve been lonely
It’s somewhat chemical
And awful filthy
There will be no comfort
For the kings
The kings of crimson
Only an end without an end
Without an end

The locust devours the last of this old harvest and we are made new
