512 Lyrics - Vii: Sturm Und Drang - Lamb Of God

Six bars laid across the sky 

Four empty walls to fill the time 

One careless word, you lose your life 

A grave new world awaits inside 

Lycanthropic survival instincts 

Embrace the beast and shun the weak 

Awake the primal one that sleeps inside 

Or feel the shiver running through your spine 

The time is slipping by, no peace in sight 

But the teeth of time still hold their bite 

My hands are painted red 

My future's painted black 

I can't recognize myself 

I've become someone else 

My hands are painted red, my hands are painted red 

Schizophrenic amnesia 

Bid goodbye to all you knew and loved 

Forget the only life that you knew outside 

They bought the ticket, now you take the ride 

The time is slipping by, no peace in sight 

But the teeth of time still hold their bite 

My hands are painted red 

My future's painted black 

I can't recognize myself 

I've become someone else 

My hands are painted red, my hands are painted red 

Another number quickly learns the rules 

A hidden burner waits to point at you 

A subtle gesture and you're ventilated 

Talk isn't cheap here, bleed out in payment 

Six bars laid across the sky 

Four empty walls to fill the time 

My hands are painted red 

My future's painted black 

I can't recognize myself 

I've become someone else 

My hands are painted red, my hands are painted red, red, red 

My future's painted black 

I can't recognize myself 

I've become someone else 

My hands are painted red, my hands are painted red
