05. The Grind of the Living

Описание: https://altoinversion.bandcamp.com/al...

[Verse 1]
Open my eyes to the same shade of grey
Another dawn breaks to ruin the day.
The air tastes like ash, the silence is loud
I’m just another ghost lost in the crowd.
They say that it’s precious, this gift of a breath
I see it as just a delay of our death.

[Pre-Chorus]
It would be easy to lie down and sleep
To let the snow cover the secrets I keep.
But the Devil is patient, and God isn’t there
And I’ve got a burden I’m sentenced to bear.

[Chorus]
Life is a cage made of bone and of skin
A losing game that we try to win.
So grit your teeth and swallow the blood
Drag your feet through the shit and the mud.
It’s cruel and it’s cold and it cuts like a knife
But we suffer the endless sentence of life.

[Verse 2]
Hope is a poison they feed to the weak
A light at the end that plays hide and seek.
I don’t want your pity, I don’t want your lies
I see the truth in the dead of your eyes.
We are born just to rot, we build just to break
We suffer for every mistake that we make.

[Chorus]
Life is a cage made of bone and of skin
A losing game that we try to win.
So grit your teeth and swallow the blood
Drag your feet through the shit and the mud.
It’s cruel and it’s cold and it cuts like a knife
But we suffer the endless sentence of life.

[Bridge]
Carry the weight...
Until the spine cracks.
There is no turning back.
NO TURNING BACK!

[Chorus]
Life is a cage made of bone and of skin
A losing game that we try to win.
So grit your teeth and swallow the blood
Drag your feet through the shit and the mud.
It’s cruel and it’s cold and it cuts like a knife
But we suffer the endless sentence of life.

[Outro]
We endure.
We endure.
Until the end.
Good riddance.
