Feel The Blade
Liege Lord Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Hides the truth from himself
Not from you or me, check it
Acts like a dog, always take the easy way
You can't live forever without responsibility
Always in the action
The best way to break him is to break down his road
[Chorus]
Feel the blade, he's living a lie
feel the blade, he's wondering why
Feel the blade, why can't he see
That he'll feel the blade from me
His dreams have been ended, cut him down to size
His dreams have been ended, maybe he'll realize
He thought he'd live forever, for all eternity
He can't lead anything, nothing comes for free
[Chorus: x2]
