Author & Punisher - Drone Carrying Dread Lyrics

Laser light upon my head
Breath of air you wind up dead
Razor wire, bloodborne fear
News of fire a desperate year

Flash of light, we wake at dawn
Streets ablaze, we can't see anyone
They breached the wall, the guns came through
Forced our way, lost our youth

A signal to hold, to light you up
Collapse into roles, try to toughen up
Foray by night, looking for anything
That we can use to force our hand
For today we are accepting the past is beyond control

We enter the forest, a night begun
(we gave them all that we had)
They drove out before us we were overrun
(they had us all on our knees)
A charade, the militia, crosses, uniforms, filling all the roles
(they were all fucking police).
The result, a pathetic collapse of the soul
(we made them pay with their lives).

A midnight attack, many dead, many sold
Escape by the river, took all we could hold
Went east to the border, sold ammo for clothes
The last of our bread for a rifle and bow

Blue light on the grey horizon
New fight on this day I'm chosen

They're closing the gap and there's nowhere to go
They'll run down the walkers, put your head out for show
I aim for the engine, they jumped as it slowed
They'll starve like the rest of us, begging and cold

Moonlight and we're still standing
End times, on the great abandon
