Bury them we’ll live like kings.
Bury them we’ll live like kings, but it’s not what it seems…
it feeds.
It feeds and it eats at you from the inside.
…And it eats at your soul until there’s nothing left,
but mannequins, in a hopeless charade, feigning humanity.
Just bury them we’ll live like kings.
bury them we’ll live like kings.
Bury them, forget the names.
Every victim will be left faceless.
I looked into my brother’s eyes but they were never met.
He and I were damned, forever we’d be damned.
We have a debt to pay, fate won’t let us live this down,
no not this time.
There’s not a thing to steal or cheat that can pay for what we’ve done.
Because there’s beauty in all things but not in me.
I’ve stripped that away.
My soul will never rest without an angel’s salvation.
Now I’ll rot away forever at the bottom of a pit.
I built this hell myself, I’ve got to live in it.
I have a debt to pay fate won’t let me live this down, no not this time.
There’s not a thing to steal or cheat that can pay for what
I’ve done.
I will be forever haunted by the faces of the faceless.
