The Residue by Embreach
The Residue lyrics
Beneath the surface
cascade the streams
Bleak, looming waters
clad in a sparkle
hide the unapparent
Wrestling the unseen
The undertow breeds suffocation
Contemplating letting go
As the drowned suffer no more
"Call of duty
A swift ending - revolt!
Rid the ridicule"
Witness the groundwork:
A mesh of his broken dreams
- wrecked, shattered, torn apart!
Lifeblood running dry
Searching redemption for all that you've done
Deserting all hope for the life yet to come
Wrestling the unseen
the undertow breeds suffocation
"Faulty doctrine
A reek of revolution
It'll start right here, right now!"
Disparage the elders
Cast shame upon our founding fathers
Expose the weakness in us all:
Muted cries of help lest others may know
Bitter is the residue of hate!
The beauty lies in poetry:
verses written, never heard
Bitter is the residue of hate
Sour the lingering of disdain
Blow by blow the world erodes
See the pieces wash ashore
A withering man at war no more
A deathbed for the wretched ones
In deafening silence we are one
with the world
Bitter is the residue of hate!
