Deceitful smiles, their words just empty sounds Like ghosts they vanished, left us broken down Promises shattered, like glass under boot Trust they shattered, left scars as their loot Threads they tore, from a bond absolute Now ashes remain, from once ripe fruit They're just strangers, they're just strangers Just strangers passing through, never cared about us Us, us, us And they hurt, yeah, they hurt Those bastards better, better, better run And they hurt, yeah, they hurt But we'll rise, yeah, we'll rise From the ashes, from the lies With our fists in the air, defy those cries Enemies to the end, we're cutting ties Sons of bitches, you'll see our rage Feel the thunder, shake the stage Betrayed by their faces, illusion we fell for Their shadows linger, haunt evermore But we won't cower, we won't plead Light the fires of our resolve, heed our creed Our hearts are steel, our spirit untamed They thought they'd break us, but we've reclaimed Our flame But we won't cower, we won't plead Light the fires of our resolve, heed our creed Our hearts are steel, our spirit untamed They thought they'd break us, but we've reclaimed Betrayed by their faces, illusion we fell for Their shadows linger, haunt evermore But we won't cower, we won't plead Light the fires of our resolve, heed our creed Our hearts are steel, our spirit untamed They thought they'd break us, but we've reclaimed our flame In the dead of night, under blood-red skies In the dead of night, under blood-red skies We remember each lie, the pain's our prize Echoes of betrayal, the wounds still raw But we stand our ground, defy their law With every scar, we've grown stronger We won't let them tear us under You who like to judge without knowing Gossip and slander The devil waits for you in hell It doesn't matter if you're a son or daughter of a bitch But if you fuck the same way
