It's Nights Like This That Keep Us Alive

Carve the eyes out of our heads And slash our tongues if we scream Throw the noose around the necks of the kin who sew and seek For we are distant and too far Fetched from the themes of unrest Diverse in resistance - revamped in defying threat Its nights like this that keep us alive They shed our skin by the host of salvation By the skin of my teeth retributions made serene We never wanted it to be like this We never wanted sympathy Those eyes like knives throw a soiled glance of suicide This torrid struggle is carnage to their fear Master to servant gagged by tourniquet Save your breath and savor this moment For the oath of onslaught in spitting vile Brings a pompous death to your throne Its nights like this that keep us alive
