upon the shores

Singer:trivium

wandering endlessly upon the shores

for something that i will never attain

banished here for a life of nothingness

my only comfort is the sand i bleed on

hope is gone

it will never be the same

all i feel are the repeated stings of pain

pungent stench of the sins of the worthless ones

faithless cries of the sins of the godless ones

marching on in deathly silence

upon the shores we go

crashing tides applaud the violence

upon the shores we go

i'm dying endlessly upon the shores

for something that i will never attain

tortured here for a life of nothingness

my only comfort is the sand i die on

hope is gone

it will never be the same

all i feel are the repeated stings of pain

pungent stench of the sins of the worthless ones

faithless cries of the sins of the godless ones

marching on in deathly silence

upon the shores we go

crashing tides applaud the violence

upon the shores we go

charon

is this the fate for me

is the obolus all i pay

cursed to wander the shores of acheron

my eyes must have been missing silver coins

maggots drinking the blood of me

insects licking the tears i weep

hornets piercing

while wasps are breaking

every single fucking inch of skin on me

hope is gone

it will never be the same

all i feel are the repeated stings of pain

pungent stench of the sins of the worthless ones

faithless cries of the sins of the godless ones

marching on in deathly silence

upon the shores we go

crashing tides applaud the violence

upon the shores we go
