Try to capture While clutching at your chest A scrap or fragment of your hope Lost long ago Blistering palms And your knuckles pale, spectral New death, born timid and companionless Hunting immunity ♪ Everyone ceasing their quivering A desperate and dying wish Heartbreak to strangle complacency And banish all prior dusks ♪ Gasping lungs beg for the fires to cauterize ♪ You huddled in trenches From the glare of derision In the jaws of disfavor Each a daughter of contempt Who would unsheathe in vengeance One thousand blades glinting And bury all cycles of abuse, uneulogized ♪ This, the only promise There will be no appeal for your mercy Sick with their pride they will writhe In the gaze of their fathers and howl Crushed by the weight of their misdeeds No one ever mended Nothing ever reconciled So sings the choir ♪ No one ever mended Nothing ever reconciled So sings the choir ♪ Boundless ruin will find your captors Crescent in you Glittering torch of those disfigured With fury renewed Expel every deceit you swallowed Choke not on their histories But flourish breathing free air once again You will undo their works You will make cinders of their cities Baring your teeth Wielding the weapons of refusal Matching their violence ♪ Matching their violence
