Bloodletting - Khemmis

Have we gone blind?

I used to sing of finding light

In the darkened skies above

No fleeting glimpse

All hope is bleeding from this shell

The wolves are snapping at all sides

Consuming fear

The faith I held is fractured like a mirror

Both sides reflect the darkness of the other

Without the will to look inside

We cut our wrists on the divide

And I am bleeding out with no one there beside me

No fleeting glimpse

No hope remains inside this hell

The noose is gripping at my neck with every breath

Our life is drained

We’re being punished for our crimes

The executioner calls out a final time

Offering wealth and wine

Take my hand and twist the knife

We’re depraved and reviled

Welcoming eternal night
