Wrathbearer - Nodes Of Ranvier

That crucifixion meant nothing to me

Just another fairy tale passed down through the centuries

I’ve heard the myth of how he came to save this world

But what good is a savior

When the cemeteries are already full?

I look around and all I see

Pain and hate and sickness, misery

We are alone.

Abandon hope

How can you possibly believe in a God you can’t even see?

It makes me sick to hear you speak

Your mind a grave of false beliefs

Please, just help me understand

Why you place trust in this dead man

Pray with all your faith

That your king will bring relief

He is dead and gone

Empty is your savior’s throne

Cry out for a God to hear your prayers

Don’t be surprised when the silence

Deafens your anxious ears

As I face these evil days, I rely upon myself

I find no relief above, I do not need his help

But I’m sinking deeper into a life completely void

Now I see what I truly am

Nothing but a coward.

Am I damned?

I’m not alone.

Embraced by hope

I wanted nothing more than to destroy your bloody cross

But redemption found a son of hell

In a world completely lost

Now I’ve come to understand

I have betrayed salvation’s hand

Love and fear divine

I have come to realize

Fools that laugh and mock beware

Most will surely weep in hell

I was the traitor with His blood on my hands

And I should be…

The one to burn

It was me whose back was turned

Once an enemy of the Wrathbearer
