While God Sleeps - Thirty Lashes Lyrics

I'll cut the life from your throat
And pay my penance when the time comes
In the hopes that when you're gone
I can finally find my peace

I pray that the light can wash
Your blood from my hands
I pray that the fire
Can grow and burn for eternity

I pray that the light can wash
Your blood from my hands
I pray that the fire
Can grow and burn for eternity

You and I
Chained to the same fate
Suffer underneath the burning light
I'll follow you into decay
And salt the ground with dreams and dust

You will never escape this
The mind, you poison with hatred
Your bones, twisting in anguish
The depths, have patiently waited

You can't run
You can't hide

I'll cut the life from your throat
And pay my penance when the time comes
In the hopes that when you're gone
I can finally find my peace

I pray that the light can wash
Your blood from my hands
I pray that the fire
Can grow and burn for eternity

I pray that the light can wash
Your blood from my hands
I pray that the fire
Can grow and burn for eternity

I watched the life fade from your eyes
And I quivered at the sight of it

Now there's no going back
Theres no going back
