It's we the people
Who spawned this rage
The violent people

Who dawned this age

Who dawned this age


Convulse and kill
Tremble, blood spills

Ruination
Our divination


Caustic are the ties that bind
Like barbed wire, taut and fine
Tied around the wrists that

Plead
Crimson for the dark to feed


Why can't we see
What's come to be
We broke the lifeblood

We're drowned in death's flood
We're drowned in death's flood


Convulse and kill
Tremble, blood spills
Ruination

Our divination

Caustic are the ties that bind

Like barbed wire, taut and fine
Tied around the wrists that
Plead

Crimson for the dark to feed

Caustic are the ties that bind


It surges through us all
A lack of self-control

A sighing, vacant soul

Plunged headfirst in the deep

Nothing for us to keep
Only sounding a weep


Can you help me find my way
I've been lost for so long I don't
Even known where it went wrong

Can you help me
Can you help me


Find strength to armor me
To face my enemies
A whispered, draining plea


Can you help me find my way
I've been lost for so long I don't

Even known where it went wrong
Can you help me
Can you help me


Caustic are the ties that bind
Like barbed wire, taut and fine

Tied around the wrists that
Plead
Crimson for the dark to feed


Caustic are the ties that bind
