lyrics

There is blood in the water – it slowly dissipates
A murky Sludge deciding our fate
We’re going to burn for all the things we’ve done

Our minds our racing as we pull the boat to shore
Cover it with leaves and run the forest floor
We’re in an earthquake zone

We were raised in flames
If you see those flames come down don’t be standing around

Can’t pacify the beast when it gets hot
Boiling point is low – patience is not
We’re in an earthquake zone

Hot-headed flashes, fists fly around
I’m seeing red until you see the ground
We’re going to burn for all the things we’ve done

There’s no point in discussing the matter
We’re products of where we come from
You want a change and I am sure that it’s coming
Just not in the direction you’re hoping for
