Lyrics The Autumn Offering

The Autumn Offering

Worn Out Wings

Take up the hammer

Strike the iron

Silence is filling you now

No escape for your misdealings

Misery guides the vines that twist and choke inside you

Seize the day

Drop the blade

The end is truth

I'm living proof

I watched my future die

Through all the burned down bridges

Wasted years spent chasing demons

There's nothing left to regret

Not even a fool like you should go on

Fly into the sun

I'll laugh when worn out wings burn

Through all the burned down bridges

Wasted years spent chasing demons

Another burned-out town

Acidic

Dried-out

Starving

Desolation dealt in spades

Kill yourself

Let there be no lies between us

Trephination of the will

Kill myself

Let there be no ties between us

Another chalkline for the till

There's nothing left to regret

Not even a fool like you should go on

Fly into the sun

I'll laugh when worn out wings burn

I haven't shed a tear

It's been so long through bitter years

Maybe I'm the one who'll die when worn out wings burn

Temptation baits the addict gene

Familiar places

Empty spaces

Hereditary path of destruction

Coma-white riddled with sickness

Through all the burned down bridges

Wasted years spent chasing demons

Abandon your hope

For no one is listening

Turning a deaf ear to you

Excess of this unfit king I am

To this earth flesh I'll deliver

There's nothing left to regret

Not even a fool like you should go on

Fly into the sun

I'll laugh when worn out wings burn

I haven't shed a tear

It's been so long through bitter years

Maybe I'm the one who'll die when worn out wings burn
