Sanctuary

Born from the soil of the Earth

Thrown to the fire

Still defying the laws of fate

And willing to conspire

All you give

Is all you'll fucking get

New grief, denied reprieve

Conceived and forced to breathe

Bitter bones slowly breaking

Shouldering the weight

Spat out by the world

No rest comes for the weary

The sins of man have to be carried

Another ghost ascends the stairway

For death is the only sanctuary

Cast down as a falling star

Left to die

The journey trudges on

An ax to grind

All you give

Is all you'll fucking get

New grief, denied reprieve

Conceived and forced to breathe

Conceived and forced to

Breathe in the ashes

And fade away

The coffin is nailed shut

Here to stay

They say no rest comes for the weary

The sins of man have to be carried

Another ghost ascends the stairway

For death is the only sanctuary

No rest comes for the weary

The sins of man have to be carried

Another ghost ascends the stairway

For death is the only sanctuary

Another ghost ascends the stairway

For death is the only sanctuary
