Lyrics The Acacia Strain

The Acacia Strain

Model Citizen

Broken fingers, broken legs

Attention for all those who beg

All alone with bones exposed

I'm the only one who knows

Fingernails tearing under the flesh

Traces of me wherever she went

The frost freezes frozen and erodes

Force fed glass as I step on your throat

Drown your sorrows

No promise of tomorrow

Final farewell

Cry to yourself

Fight to survive

Frozen in time

I've seen you at your best

Done to death

The frost freezes frozen and erodes

Force fed glass as I step on your throat

Drown your sorrows

No promise of tomorrow

I buried them under my porch

The called off the dogs, they called off the search

May your sons and daughters rest in peace

Identified by their teeth

Whistling past the graveyard

Dying's the easy part

The frost freezes frozen and erodes

Force fed glass as I step on your throat

Drown your sorrows

No promise of tomorrow
