I swore an oath to myself I would never break A bond in blood, a pact taken to the grave I lit the spark and let the flames circle me Watch it burn, it's the only protection I need I'm too entrenched, I'm too far gone I kept this vow through the eye of the storm Some got burned along the way Dropped like flies while the rest of us stayed I stand in the rain under these clouds of grey Watch the seed grow from nothing I walk the path Unchanged Still chained I held onto my wrath Because it's ingrained Blood stained It still lives, and it bursts through veins Scarred and bleeding, on broken wings It can't be feigned, a sentence to the grave Don't pray for me now, I've weathered the flames I walk the path Unchanged Still chained I held onto my wrath Because it's ingrained Blood stained I walk the path Unchanged Still chained I held onto my wrath Because it's ingrained Blood stained I swore an oath to myself I would never break A bond in blood, a pact taken to the grave Maybe the gate needs a lock, imposters run amok If they reach out their hand cut them off I walk the path Unchanged Still chained I held onto my wrath Because it's ingrained Blood stained I walk the path Unchanged Still chained I held onto my wrath Because it's ingrained Blood stained
