Bite to Break Skin Lyrics

So let me take this medicine
To quench my love for violent things
My swan song will
Be like a bullet laced in anger
As the razor cuts the soft spot on your heel

(It's back) It's getting slower
(This war) It's getting harder
To fight by myself
(This place) A bitter fashion
(Ripped out) This shield that I have
Tears rain from above

Do you see the life I lead?

So, follow me into the sun
And I will bleed the poision dry

These bayonet scars never seize
To blind the light shed from the beast
And all we do is hate

(Passion) From constant visions
(Angels) A round of useless
Good has lost its heart

Do you see the life I lead?

So, follow me into the sun
And I will bleed the poison dry

For you
For you
(For you!)
(For you!)
(For you!)

Bite to break skin
Don't give the secret
My stoic face
Bleeding with passion
The Phoenix will die
Inside the firestorm
I am the son
Follow my footsteps.

Bite to break skin
Don't give the secret
My stoic face
Bleeding with passion
The Phoenix will die
Inside the firestorm
I am the son
Follow my footsteps.
