A Past Unknown - The Critic

Take the fall of us
Wicked and wrecked we come to
A place where I can’t carry on
Find me out in an instant
Your presence kills my ties
To these sick misleading alibis

Here I am, a critic restored
I don’t care what they say anymore
You come at me with a mouth of deceit
I serve only One who destroys and defeats
You, a critic, a mouthful of sores
You’ll be drug down to the nightmare you built
I won’t look back, I’ll show no remorse
Your time is done misleading no more

What if we all understand
Our own wrong intentions?
Guided by a heart that dies
Where’s the honor in our minds?
Leaving a legacy
To be entangled by the snare
Of lies you left behind
Dragging reason from our minds
Burn the scales off our eyes

You always take the fall for us
Waiting patiently to come and rescue me

You know you’re done
This battle is already won
The promises you couldn’t keep
Left them all in deceptive defeat

Here I am, a critic restored
I don’t care what they say anymore
You come at me with a mouth of deceit
I serve only One who destroys and defeats
You, a critic, a mouthful of sores
You’ll be drug down to the nightmare you built
I won’t look back, I’ll show no remorse
Your time is done misleading no more

Watch the chains as they burn
Your demise is the cure for this curse
I’ve seen it all with a scar that’s your work
Now it’s you being left in the dark /x2

Watch the chains as they burn
Your demise is the cure for this curse
