Demon Hunter - The World Is A Thorn Lyrics

The gavel has fallen along with the rest
Are we expected to settle for this?
Bring us the plague, lead us away
Blacken tomorrow with ash of today
Can't you see the fabric of our standards wearing thin?
See your world in its grave at the hands of the enslaved

Won't bow to man, won't bow to government
Won't trust in a failed system of self-fulfilling lust
Won't love a world where my God is mocked
I defy

Oh, a kiss on the serpent's head
We walk in the line of deceit, the walking dead
Can't you feel the ground of our discretion giving way?
Refusal of hope, solution demise
Bury the truth in a mountain of lies

Won't bow to man, won't bow to government
Won't trust in a failed system of self-fulfilling lust
Won't love a world where my God is mocked
I defy

This is what you try to sell me subjective nothingness
Pull your sickness from my throat
Let me breathe the truth
Let me breathe the truth

Won't bow to man, won't bow to government
Won't bow to greed, won't bow to false hope
Won't bow to self, won't bow to modern code
Won't sell my soul to a dead world
I defy
