Ordeal Lyrics

Landscapes of rubble and corpses clouded by dust and flies
Scattered rifts in the earth, relics of tectonic fury
Breathing sulfur and pestilence, the air is foul and dry
Ruthlessly, the die has been cast: sentenced to adversity

Broken
Fractured
Shattered

Awaken amongst ruins
Crawling in clod and dust
Amputated and helpless
Forever wounded to the soul

Missed
Death
Bonded
To
Life

Broken
Crippled
Forsaken
In this hellhole

Dispossessed
Of bodily integrity
This ultimate trauma
Took away your autonomy

Forever scarred
Stared at with pity
Gaze of sadness
Always in need

Beggared by men and now by this earth in this burned paradise
The only way out of this rotten state; the feeding hand of hypocrisy
Taking back more than it will ever give; false benevolence
Fabricated helplessness making you liable for your misery
And this tragedy
