The Harvest

Описание: [Verse 1]
The first one was a shadow in the corner of my eye
I didn’t have a reason, I just wanted him to die
I felt the cold vibration of the blade against the bone
A sudden burst of crimson—I was no longer alone
It wasn’t out of anger, it wasn’t out of greed
It was a hollow in my belly that I simply had to feed
Now the moon is getting hungry and the stars are turning red
I’m counting all the secrets of the quiet, lonely dead

[Chorus]
Oh, the iron calls to iron and the blood calls to the blade
I’m the architect of silence in the mess that I have made
It’s a fever in my marrow, it’s a hunger in my chest
A godless kind of craving that won’t let a sinner rest
I’m confessing to the wind, I’m confessing to the dust
I’m a prisoner to the copper and a prisoner to the rust

[Verse 2]
I’ve left a trail of echoes down the long and winding road
Each one a heavy story, each one a heavy load
The girl in the blue cotton, the man by the creek
The way the air gets heavy when they’re too afraid to speak
I love the way the life goes out, a candle in the draft
While the demons in my mirror look at me and have a laugh
There’s a sweetness in the ending, there’s a beauty in the kill
I’ve had my fill of many... but I’ve never had my fill

[Bridge]
One for the rhythm...
Two for the stain...
Three for the pleasure of the prehistoric pain!

[Verse 3]
Don’t look for any mercy, don’t look for a "why"
I was born with a desert where my heart was meant to lie
I’m a murderer by nature, I’m a monster by design
And I’m looking for the throat that’s gonna match up with mine
The sun is coming up to wash the silver from the sky
But the thirst is never-ending... and the well is never dry

[Outro]
Confession is for cowards...
I’m just telling you the truth...
I’m coming for the harvest...
I’m coming for you...
