Lyrics Bridge of Broken Bones - Gutter Instinct

Bridge of Broken Bones

Venomous clusters resonate between bars of a cage
Awakening the shadows, poisoning all that is real
A damp filthy rag shoved down the throat
A smothering veil through which no light will pass
Gasping for air in a world submerged in bile
Dragged from life, over a sea of sulphur
Across the bridge of broken bones
Into crypts of fire, into endless nothing
Across the bridge of broken bones
Disease-ridden parasite, an anchor of burden
Dawnswallower yanking the chain from below
The womb of hope gives birth to a stillborn child
Soaked in cascades of disappointment
Injects anesthetic of unfulfilled dreams
Numb all the senses
The weight of the world
That was once in bloom
Now withers and dies
