the sin and the sentence
trivium
i heard the passing bells calling out my name
i knew i'd never see another day
i couldn't swim against the tides of blame
i knew there was no other way
you better practice your lines
you better practice your words
i know that real monsters lie
between the light and the shade
it doesn't matter what you say or feel
when honest men become deranged
they'll genuflect to a lie
the flames grip your throat
the flames grip your throat
i saw the dagger eyes staring back at me
i knew i'd never have a chance to plead
but in the sight of fallen men
they bury you before you speak
you better practice your lines
you better practice your words
i know that real monsters lie
between the light and the shade
it doesn't matter what you say or feel
when honest men become deranged
they'll genuflect to a lie
the flames grip your throat
the flames grip your throat
beware those who speak in tongues
for they may call your name
'cause you don't understand me
'cause you don't understand me
they'll genuflect to a lie
the flames grip your throat
the flames grip your throat
beware those who speak in tongues
for they may call your name
'cause you don't understand me
'cause you don't understand me
'cause you don't understand me
'cause you don't understand me
the flames grip your throat
