Vein Lyrics

[Verse 1: Duncan Geen]
When the light crept over the water
You watched their eyes yearn for blood and the wealth of your fathers
And we'll bide our time
We've learned to live with our sleepless nights
The lies we spread are deafening
They buried the truth with your lives
And we just stand by

[Pre Chorus: Duncan Green]
We'll swallow the earth and drain the seas
Out of control and it's all for nothing
Can't fill our needs when nothing remains

[Chorus: Logan Jahr & Duncan Green]
When the sand claws at our wrists
We'll find poison dripping from our fingertips
When the sky caves in
When we wake to oblivion
Will we turn our eyes for one last time?

[Verse 2: Duncan Green]
Fall away like the breath in your chest
Suffocate beneath our negligence
Feel the blood cease in your veins
The infection eats away
See the parasites fall from the skies
Under the guise of a new way of life
Our so called values have led us astray
We'll see their pain when it's too late
Too late to change
[Pre Chorus: Duncan Green]
So we'll swallow the earth and drain the seas
Out of control and it's all for nothing
Can't fill our needs when nothing remains

[Chorus: Logan Jahr & Duncan Green]
When the sand claws at our wrists
We'll find poison dripping from our fingertips
When the sky caves in
When we wake to oblivion
Will we turn our eyes for one last time?

[Breakdown: Duncan Green]
When the infection is done feeding off the mess we made
It'll come for what's left
We embraced the sins of our fathers
Now the disease creeps in
Waiting to consume what's left
And in the end we just bore witness
