Fourteen thousand years I’ve laid here
Thawing in the sun
Motionless, my beauty shone
Now my body is so tired, I’m covered up in sores
I want to rise, glory reprised
But they drag me down to waste
They drag me down to waste

Demons stalk from her eyes
They’re are not willing to roam from her
She asked them why

Demons stalk from her eyes
They’re are not willing to roam from her
She asks us why

Won’t somebody pull them from my eyes?
Does nobody care?
Why won’t somebody pull them from my eyes?
Does nobody care?

Please don’t take your eyes off us
We need you here

Don’t leave us rogue
Don’t leave us without understanding
The morals that run from your heart
Guide us

Surrogate mother! Unlawful contract
You only suffer in vein
Surrogate mother! Forced by god
You never wanted this for us

Surrogate mother! Unlawful contract
You never wanted this for us

Visions of the past, and visions of the future
They want to forget
They never bow to you, they never bow to you
They never bow and never will

When I first saw her
She took my hand and threw me to the lions
I promised to be the one who’d never run away
Three beasts gazed upon me
Their eyes fixed, a deathly gaze
To me they approached
And knelt by my side

And as the years grow strong
I felt her presence desert me
I promised to be the one who’d never run away

How the years have past, a stranger to a lost cause
Those beasts still walk with me
She lay there still
Motionless but conscious
I remain to her

So please don’t take your eyes off us
We need you here
Please don’t take your eyes off us
We need you here

Don’t leave us rogue
Don’t leave us with out understanding
The morals that run from your heart
Guide us
