Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Follower, you are beckoned by command
Speak when you're spoken to
Do all they ask and fucking thank them
The paradox of repentance, where is your spine?
Does it cling to dependence?
The dream dissolved, the cross fell down
You can enter the kingdom
But you'll never wear the crown
[Chorus]
The shine of a thousand eyes
Burning through the floor
A paradise awaits in flames
You always come back for more
And I gave you it all
The sorrow that we swore
Would die as we repent
For the echoes of our war
[Bridge]
A hex on you
A hex
[Verse 2]
A dream is a lie
Free will is a lie
All hail the horrid creation
Prophecy of the forsaken
The dead depart into the ground
You can enter the kingdom but you'll never wear the crown
[Chorus]
The shine of a thousand eyes
Burning through the floor
A paradise awaits in flames
You always come back for more
And I gave you it all
The sorrow that we swore
Would die as we repent
For the echoes of our war
[Bridge]
A hex on you
A hex on you
Delusions of hope stolen with every breath
A hex on you
The curse around your neck
Will drag you to your death
[Bridge]
A hex on you
A hex on you
[Outro]
The curse around your neck
Will drag you to your death
A curse around your neck
Will drag you to your death
A hex on you
A dream is a lie
A hex on you
Free will is a lie
A hex on you
A dream is a lie
Free will is a lie
