Live Attack

Curse the Gods (Live)

Lyrics:

With all this weight, I get no rest,
Same old demons, same old test.
The world sleeps safe while I feel dread,
I fight their wars inside my head.

There’s no peace for a man who knows,
The cost of keeping wolves too close.
Sanity’s a debt I pay in kind,
For every soul that’s left behind.

I fight the monsters under their beds,
Cage every one inside my head.
A hero’s light won’t always prevail,
But I’ll do it again, even if I fail.

’Cause peace ain’t free, it takes a fool like me,
To bleed so the broken can finally sleep.

My eyes have seen what others face,
Each demon I fight, they erase.
The mirror cracks, truth bleeding through,
I wear the night like armor too.

I’ve prayed through static, dreamed their name,
Whispered mercy to a dying flame.
The line I guard shifts soft as sand,
I’ll take that fight, I’ll make my stand.

I fight the monsters under their beds,
Cage every one inside my head.
A hero’s light won’t always prevail,
But I’ll do it again, even if I fail.

I dance with the dark, so they don’t bleed,
I’m the sin they’ll never need.
One more night, I’ll hold the line,
This madness borrowed, never mine.

I’ve seen the void, it knows my name,
Still, I walk through the smoke and flame.
The crown of scars, the debt I own,
Paid in blood but never shown.

I am the storm their prayers ignore,
The silent oath, the unseen war.
If the world must burn to keep them sane,
Then light the match, I’ll take the blame.

I fight the monsters under their beds,
Cage every one inside my head.
A hero’s light won’t always prevail,
But I’ll do it again, even if I fail.

’Cause peace ain’t free, it takes a fool like me,
To bleed so the broken can finally sleep.

Let Go of My World
