Undergrowth

Way down below Forgotten and ignored By our neon leaders Our souls have run dry Now left to die in the undercity We dwell in the shadows, waiting, plotting the day of our reckoning No path leads back into the castle in the sky I never thought it would come this far The weight of shame bows my head Seeds of lies secretly kept Like a wish upon a dying star Now we're facing thought extinction But the serene soil is cleansing me Marching forth towards redemption Lights the spark I always failed to see And then a voice began to grow By the hands of a thousand And it breaks right through the ceiling Of a crumbled house That now feels like home Echoes of the rumbling earth Shake the crown they took from us We are the harvest that you can not reap These roots run deep You can't stop the undergrowth Choked out the voice that was guiding me A devilish make believe They'll try to lure you in Subdue the truth Don't let 'em catch your mind With an offer you can't An offer you can't refuse Blegh Liars Deceivers Greed without remorse And then a voice began to grow By the hands of a thousand And it breaks right through the ceiling Of a crumbled house That now feels like home Echoes of the rumbling earth Shake the crown they took from us We are the harvest that you can not reap These roots run deep You can't stop the undergrowth Rise! Our vines plunge deep into the heart Of a hollow leviathan Slowly we feed off of the ashes For the time of man has come The seed you've sown Grows fast on blood and bone Devoured by your own It's a devil you should know The seed you've sown Grows fast on blood and bone Devoured by your own It's a devil you should know The future before us Under the light on the surface The signs were there you should've seen it Buried under the dirt we kept dreaming The future before us Under the light on the surface Now that there's nothing to stop us I hope we can practice temperance
