A Banquet For Traitors Lyrics


So far from clean, I'm undeserving of the strength
The strength in Your arms used to save meBut years passed when I saw Eve next to me
She's wrapped in low cut, dripping sensuality
I remember the host
But it's been so long since we spokeMy son, you can hold perfection
In your arms if you wish
But I sit at a banquet for traitors
Placed here between a thief and a liarJust run and hold perfection
In your arms as I slip
But I'll make you the God of a liar
'Cause I've been both a saint and a viper
I'll make you the God of a liarI am a lie, just like the traitors
That cry for forgiving replies
But keep their grips held tight
Though my eye's on Eve
You're ready to bleed as if I'm royaltyBut I am no king, I am no kingHis life spilled like a tide so divine
It was a blood soaked feast that never ceased
As his veins dripped empty

With such violent grace the waves hit my faceAnd in painful clarity I turned fearfully
What makes you think you can deserve me?
What makes you think you can deserve me?
My host fell to his knees as paling lips pushed his pleaMy son, you can hold perfection
In your arms if you wish
But I sit at a banquet for traitors
Placed here between a thief and a liarJust run and hold perfection
In your arms as I slip
But I'll make you the God of a liar
'Cause I've been both a saint and a viperBy grace uneven at the banquet portrayed
Through death this life is savedI am no king, I am no
Open your eyes, child, your sea is changing

Oh, Sleeper is a metalcore band from Fort Worth, Texas signed to Solid State Records. Oh, Sleeper formed in April of 2006 after former members of short-lived rock band Terminal got together with former Between the Buried and Me guitarist Shane Blay. Eventually they found a vocalist in Micah Kinard and began practicing. As the 4 members began sledging through all the normal problems of a band start-up (no place to practice, no money and different schedules) the biggest obstacle was finding the last and final member.
