๐ Lyrics
The poison in the cherry wine
A state of death, but trapped in time
Afflicted with a nightmare's touch
That mother could not cure
A crimson promise kept to me
And I cling to it carefully
When battles fought could break my soul
It whispers to endure
As flowers blow in southern winds
They tell the tales of my own sin
When I can't stop the fight I'm in
And scarlet spreads once more
This is the pain that feeds the rot inside
A poison and a creed, my parasite
I am changed but free, and it strengthens me still to survive
(Survive, survive, survive)
So like a river flows, I'll move along
As the infection grows, my heart beats strong
I will thrive consumed as a midnight bloom into the dawn
(The dawn, the dawn, the dawn)
A killing blow from nature's wrath
The detour on my divine path
In fallout of the shattered
The debtors are unpaid
Misguided by the influence
Of the last order's ignorance
There's hope left in the bloodline still
It slumbers far away
Beyond the mountains, on the sea
Lies kindred grace for Valkyries
The wait for a homecoming
It grows to countless days
This is the pain that feeds the rot inside
A poison and a creed, my parasite
I am changed but free, and it strengthens me still to survive
(Survive, survive, survive)
So like a river flows, I'll move along
As the infection grows, my heart beats strong
I will thrive consumed as a midnight bloom into the dawn
(The dawn, the dawn, the dawn)
So if I must wait forever
For salvation or the grave
I have bound my soul to vengeance
And I've taken what I crave
I will stop the interruptions
Even if I lose my mind
When the roaches come, I'll crush them
As I'm running out of time
Within the rot, it seems
There's a faint humanity
That speaks to the affliction as it grows
And all I have become
In the years of growing numb
Is perfect in the ways I've come to know
This is the pain that feeds the rot inside
A poison and a creed, my parasite
I am changed but free, and it strengthens me still to survive
(Survive, survive, survive)
So like a river flows, I'll move along
As the infection grows, my heart beats strong
I will thrive consumed as a midnight bloom into the dawn
(The dawn, the dawn, the dawn)
A state of death, but trapped in time
Afflicted with a nightmare's touch
That mother could not cure
A crimson promise kept to me
And I cling to it carefully
When battles fought could break my soul
It whispers to endure
As flowers blow in southern winds
They tell the tales of my own sin
When I can't stop the fight I'm in
And scarlet spreads once more
This is the pain that feeds the rot inside
A poison and a creed, my parasite
I am changed but free, and it strengthens me still to survive
(Survive, survive, survive)
So like a river flows, I'll move along
As the infection grows, my heart beats strong
I will thrive consumed as a midnight bloom into the dawn
(The dawn, the dawn, the dawn)
A killing blow from nature's wrath
The detour on my divine path
In fallout of the shattered
The debtors are unpaid
Misguided by the influence
Of the last order's ignorance
There's hope left in the bloodline still
It slumbers far away
Beyond the mountains, on the sea
Lies kindred grace for Valkyries
The wait for a homecoming
It grows to countless days
This is the pain that feeds the rot inside
A poison and a creed, my parasite
