Lyrics Wrathbearer - Nodes Of Ranvier

Wrathbearer

That crucifixion meant nothing to me
Just another fairy tale passed down through the centuries
I’ve heard the myth of how he came to save this world
But what good is a savior
When the cemeteries are already full?
I look around and all I see
Pain and hate and sickness, misery
We are alone.
Abandon hope
How can you possibly believe in a God you can’t even see?
It makes me sick to hear you speak
Your mind a grave of false beliefs
Please, just help me understand
Why you place trust in this dead man
Pray with all your faith
That your king will bring relief
He is dead and gone
Empty is your savior’s throne
Cry out for a God to hear your prayers
Don’t be surprised when the silence
Deafens your anxious ears
As I face these evil days, I rely upon myself
I find no relief above, I do not need his help
But I’m sinking deeper into a life completely void
Now I see what I truly am
Nothing but a coward.
Am I damned?
I’m not alone.
Embraced by hope
I wanted nothing more than to destroy your bloody cross
But redemption found a son of hell
In a world completely lost
Now I’ve come to understand
I have betrayed salvation’s hand
Love and fear divine
I have come to realize
Fools that laugh and mock beware
Most will surely weep in hell
I was the traitor with His blood on my hands
And I should be…
The one to burn
It was me whose back was turned
Once an enemy of the Wrathbearer
