Lyrics

[Verse 1]
They came to conquer
All they wanted was to watch us suffer
Should have known what doesn't kill me
Only makes us stronger
[Verse 2]
They came to conquer
All they wanted was to watch us suffer
Should have known what doesn't kill me
Only makes us stronger
[Verse 3]
Some say we brought this upon ourselves
Overlooked the cracks
Never heard the cries for help
And I have no one to blame but myself
[Verse 4]
Whispers in the wind, shared all our sins and secrets
They came to conquer
(They came to conquer)
Not for glory or a hero's return
All they want is to watch us crash and burn
[Verse 5]
Vultures above and sharks below are waiting for us to fall
In hope they'll catch you and ruin it all
Circling us from head to toe
We're swimming in the shallows, arguing to and fro
Smell bad blood in the air
This killer instinct's the only thing we'll ever share
[Verse 6]
We are creators of our own demise
They took to the seas
They took to the skies
Only had eyes for my prized possessions
Turned all my confessions into lies
[Verse 7]
All they want is to watch us crash and burn
(All they wanted was to watch us crash and burn)
This is one of the cells, drawn into the jaws of defeat
One thousand teeth
Slowly sinking in
[Verse 8]
Vultures above and sharks below are waiting for us to fall
In hope they'll catch you and ruin it all
Circling us from head to toe
We're swimming in the shallows, arguing to and fro
Theres's bad blood in the air
This killer instinct's the only thing we'll ever share
[Verse 9]
They came to conquer
All they wanted was to watch us suffer
They came to conquer
All they wanted was to watch us suffer
Watch us suffer
