Locust Lyrics
Sweet caress
Grazes my skin
It's loveless
These hooks sink in
Behind an angel's disguise
An insect flies
Mandibles cut like a knife
A reckoningForming clouds
Their shadow shrouds
Louder the tattered wings they sound
Descending downDown they come
The swarm of locusts
Skies above
Converge to choke us
Feast of souls
Consume the harvest
Young and old
Suffer unto the locustSurrender
These veins are bled
Devoured
Nothing sacred
Strings pull the marionettes
See how they dance
Upon the winds that beget
Our pestilenceForming clouds
Their shadow shrouds
Louder the tattered wings they sound
Descending downDown they come
The swarm of locusts
Skies above
Converge to choke us
Feast of souls
Consume the harvest
Young and old
Suffer unto the locustBleeding from my eyes
This plague is sent to erase us
Bleeding from inside
These vermin can't infiltrate usFaith appears and holds a candle
Hark the angels singForming clouds
Their shadow shrouds
Louder the tattered wings they soundTear the veil
The lies derail
Purity ever will prevailTrumpets sound
The shattered crown
Halos of truth now they surround
The charade comes downDown they come
The swarm of locusts
Skies above
Converge to choke us
Feast of souls
Consume the harvest
Young and old
Suffer unto the locust
