Sacrifice
Bury Them All Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
knowing that we make it across the wire this time,
We depend upon an unjustifiable sense of faith,
even though we know that all around us is a void
But for all of the attention given to them,
And feed on what we see above,
'Till our hearts turn like the seasons,
I'm your friend until you use me,
And then be sure I won't be there.
as the final judgement is placed whore mouth,
the putative voice of the sellers
we can count on nobody.
Sacrifice a mind innocent and pure!
