As Above So Below

I drew blood from a stone
Walked the beaten track
I work my fists to the bone
And the world spits back
I won’t die on my knees
But I’m tired of dragging my feet ‘til they bleed
All I had came from within
And it’s what they took from me
What goes around I know comes back again
Bleed the light from each day or there’s hell to pay
Earned these scars with blood and bone
As above so below
It’s a cruel world but it’s the one I know
No pity
What a tragedy
Reform
Rebuild
Face a world that shows no mercy
Drained
Burned the candle at both ends
Nothing to show when the light descends
Burned
All that’s left is the breath in my lungs
You’re taking names
I’m taking tongues
Surrender your soul to nothing
To no one
Trembling masses
Lined up for judgement day
The reaper wants his toll but I won’t pay
And I all I have left is the breath in my lungs
