A Violent Strike

A Violent Strike - The Human Abstract

Written by：The Human Abstract/The Human Abstract

And out of the great beyond came a pitch black multitude

Here to choose the weakest of our race

Hellhounds of the devil's own race

Confused a violent strike for something finally here to guide the way

Our faith in order was a mistake

So fearful and divine and devoid of grace

They try to run but there's no escape

And the light decayed on that final day

Fear crept up inside night became something more than a trade

And our slumber a weakness that we all can share

Death calling in the wind this is the end

I watched as a spiral took shape across the sky

It was like a call from the other side

What will you do now

The fires of hell are raining down

Deep inside you're starting to shake

And slowly losing ground

Everyone is dead your bravery is useless

Your bravery is useless

I watched as a spiral took shape across the sky

It was like a call from the other side and there I cried

Out of control and paralyzed as everything I once was died

There's no way I'd be dying honorably

If they came and took my life now no way

I'd be dying honorably

Regrets in tow

They didn't even stand a chance

So hear me the final lines have been drawn

To build again to fall again

It's worn me down to the last straw

It took me down took me until I don't feel human at all

Test me now test me

I don't feel human at all

So don't you go thinking that you find strength

Without a trial or two

These days have got me feeling like a god

Hear me the final lines have been drawn

To build again to fall again

It's worn me down to the last straw

And I held on so long to my home until a tempest came

She came in and swept it away

And I held on so long to my home until a tempest came

She came in and swept it away

Where's your bravery

What will bravery do for you now

Where's your bravery

What will bravery do for you now

Where's your bravery

What will bravery do for you now
