a covenant of thorns - the fields of flesh lyrics
[verse 1]
i can feel it in my heart
i can feel it in my gut
though i walk with my eyes shut, i can see
and the lives you lead
make no difference this time
you’ll be dying on the vine
and who’ll care?
[pre-chorus]
to me the buildings look like tomb-stones
climbing up out of the grave
and i swear the people look like corpses
crawling up out of their graves
[chorus]
and the things you say
and things i see
scare the h-ll out of me
i don’t want to see
and the smell makes me feel so sick
causes the words in my throat to stick
i don’t want to believe
[verse 2]
and all the voices that keep swimming back to me
are a cacophic symphony in my head
[pre-chorus]
to me the buildings seem so empty
a monument to humanity
and i swear the people seem so worthless
a cancer on society
[chorus]
and the ghosts that dance
before my eyes
make me want to break down and cry
i don’t want to see
and the scars we wear on the outside
far too deep to ever hide
i don’t want to believe
and the things you say
and things i see
scare the h-ll out of me
i don’t want to see
and the smell makes me feel so sick
causes the words in my throat to stick
i don’t want to believe
and the ghosts that dance
before my eyes
make me want to break down and cry
i don’t want to see
and the scars we wear on the outside
far too deep to ever hide
i don’t want to believe
