Modern Misery Lyrics - Architects

Seven billion hungry ghosts 

Just a parasite killing its host 

The emperor wears no clothes, I see those brittle bones 

But we're buried by modern misery 

Modern misery 

There's not enough water in the world 

To wash the blood from our hands 

We planted a seed, its roots will suffocate the soul 

It grows without light and feeds from our bones 

Hell must be empty, all the devils are here 

Singing us the Lord's Prayer; finally, something that we all share

9 Misheard Christmas Carol Lyrics 

I won't go to the grave with the song still in me 

What are we hiding in the rain? 

This is a prison for lost souls 

Another life circles the drain 

We used to run with the wolves 

Now we can't see the forest 

'Cause there's no light in the black hole 

Don't try and tell me we are blessed 

We used to run with the wolves 

Are these our new messiahs? 

'Cause the saviour has a gun to my head 

Don't be fooled by Maya, the kings are all thieves 

And the serpents will bite as they please 

How has it come to this? 

I won't go to the grave with the song still in me 

And I won't live like a slave begging from my knees

We used to run with the wolves
