Truce

DEATH ANGEL SONGS AND LYRICS
album Relentless Retribution (2010)





Like a freight train blow to the chest
You taste the backhand slap from God
But you say that nothing's new
You've lived a life of pain and loss
The scars you bare attest
To the trials you've overcome
But proud, you plant your feet
Where stronger men had to run

What do you feel inside
Under the wheels of life
A truce forgotten, a truce erased
This heart you've opened has already been replaced

Woke from a heavy sleep
With a call that broke you the news
You had to hear it twice and
Both times it ripped and pierced you through
So now you stand alone
Looking down upon this mess
Another day creeps by, yes
Another day, another test

What do you feel inside
Under the wheels of life
A truce forgotten, a truce erased
This heart you've opened has already been replaced

What you've gained from this life
Is nothing, dues remain
Take or give, makes no difference
You still feel the shame

What do you feel inside
Under the wheels of life
A truce forgotten, a truce erased
This heart you've opened has already been replaced

Claws In So Deep

DEATH ANGEL SONGS AND LYRICS
album Relentless Retribution (2010)






Claws in so deep they're ripping through the other side
Lured into this trap with broken promises and lies
Conceal the taste of turpentine and serpent's kiss
On and on and on it never ends this fucking mess

Upon black wings another messenger from hell
The parasitic disillusion
Secrete the blood of life and left an empty shell
Reject the counterfeit transfusion

Claws in so deep they're tearing flesh and splitting bone
Left without a breath to rot and die there all alone
Their feast begins when you accept all hope is lost
Wear a crown of thorns until they nail you to the cross

Upon black wings another messenger from hell
The parasitic disillusion
Secrete the blood of life and left an empty shell
Reject the counterfeit transfusion

As sheep led to the slaughter
Trust in the devil's daughter
The well of poison water
The fever burning hotter
Is killing us all

Claws in so deep they've broken homes and severed ties
Offering their trust just like a spider to a fly
Deceptive truth lies in refuge behind the lie
Take and take and take until the day you fucking die

Upon black wings another messenger from hell
The parasitic disillusion
Secrete the blood of life and left an empty shell
Reject the counterfeit transfusion

As sheep led to the slaughter
Trust in the devil's daughter
The well of poison water
The fever burning hotter
Is killing us all
