Are we cast out
To roam the world alone
Under an empty sky
The light that we've been seeking
May not seem so clear
But I'd rather live in darkness
Then be buried under fear.
In this demon haunted world
I reject your blessing
I will bear your curse
Give me a place to stand and I will move the earth.
No holy words
Can save your skin
No sacred hymn
Will guide you through
Are we cast out.
Hollow words
Breed hollow minds
Your fear has left you blind.
I will walk alone
Under an empty sky
We are unloved
I am unloved
Never knowing fear
I walk alone.

This album hits like a ton of bricks. I can't say how long it's been since a band reached me like this, but I can't get enough. The driving rhythm, the ghostly floating leads, the haunting and direct lyrics, the desperation in her voice... Powerful. Jaycee
