lyrics

[Verse 1]
These dark alleyways
Filled with light; overflowing with decay
Bullet beats the brain because he was noticed

[Pre-Chorus]
A bullet right from your bible of lies
The faded letters of truth leave you hypnotized
(Your close eyes sealed up. What's wrong with us?
Are we living a life that's not enough for you?)
Game on. I see you reaching for your napalm
All stay strong and we'll see who makes the name on
The pages in the lettеrs of life and find
Who's the one bеhind the knife?

[Chorus]
Into your black eyes I see
The white lace un-faded inside
It seems these witch trials have failed again, again

Hanging you up from the pulpit
Amazed by the lies and how well you sold them
Taking your life into their hands

[Verse 2]
Too stuck in your ways to give sight
To the blind when they seek it
Take you to the grave to reap what you're sowing

[Pre-Chorus]
Sowing another death you've created
You're crawling to become one of them
Damnation never seemed the quick path to salvation

"I've not come to call the righteous to love"
We've hung. The sun burns up our lungs
Scared to think our song has been sung
Start your fire inside of another fighter fighting to be won

[Chorus]
Into your black eyes I see
The white lace un-faded inside
It seems these witch trials have failed again

Hanging you up from the pulpit
Amazed by the lies and how well they sold them
Taking your life into their hands

[Breakdown]
Burn a life from the inside
I pray I'm not the one to see you die

about

The Dawn Retreat image

The Dawn Retreat Aledo, Illinois

The Dawn Retreat is the musical equivalent of a superhero team-up, but with more guitars and slightly less spandex. Their vocalist is like the lovechild of Burt McCraken and Michael Jackson. The guitarist's riffs are so catchy, he's still in quarantine. The bassist's grooves are so funky, you'll need a bath. And the drummer's beats are so deadly, he's wanted in three states. ... more
