Salt and Lead (feat. NIKK​-​C)

from A Fortress of Flesh by Anna Pest

/

lyrics

You’ve chosen the path of ignorance
You’ve chosen the path of hate
You’ve chosen the path of fear, and it
Seems you consent to this bitter fate
The worst part’s some of you’ll be comfortable
But that will change in time
It’s already far too late

I don’t claim to be in disbelief
It’s no surprise to me
But you will not survive the storm
That you must rise to meet
I’ll watch you run feebly
I’ll watch you beg for mercy
Watch all hope slowly leave your eyes
And I’ll watch you eat yourself alive

I’ve seen it leach into the soil
Taint the rivers red
Now, watch it spread
Like salt and lead across the page
Like poison in the well
Like vermin rattling in their cage
Now, all roads lead to Hell

You’ve built this red king’s throne
And crown with glee
A fitting bearer for your legacy
In the land of freedom
To murder and rape

See how you’re staring blankly
Blood in the eye
I watched you crown your coffin’s nail
Now, I’ll watch you eat yourself alive
