TEARING BROTHERHOOD AT ITS SEAMS CAN YOU FEEL INSIDE WHAT WE FEEL IS RIGHT LED US TO BELIEVE WHAT YOU DO IS RIGHT NOW WE KNOW THE CHOICES WE MAKE BEGIN TO MAKE A DRASTIC CHANGE AND THE FEELINGS WILL BE PUSHED ASIDE OUR BROKEN WINGS WILL QUICKLY HEAL AND WE'LL LEARN TO FLY AND OUR STRENGTH WILL SLOWLY GROW IN DEEP REVENGE WHAT DO YOU KNOW WHEN YOU KNOW ME?

TRUSTED IN EVERY WORD YOU SAID BUILT A BATTLE ON A CURSE OF REVENGE DEFIANCE IS OUR DIVIDE AS THE SILENCE NOW ENBRACES THE SKY SMALLER IN NUMBERS, FEWER IN TRUTH SUFFOCATING BENEATH THE SKIN AT ITS ROOT BURNING THE BRIDGES TO FIGHT FROM AFAR WHEN THE ENEMY WAS STANDING HERE ALL ALONG NO TIME TO WASTE …WE’VE COME TO FAR NO TIME TO WASTE…WE’RE FALLING APART GET IN LINE EXPIRED ARE YOUR SANDS OF TIME FALL IN…. GET IN LINE!!
