When the Smoke Clears

Fading into the night, wasting away
Sinking slow into despair
This godforsaken land, tears at your soul
Embracing the scars that we wear
No sign of life
On this barren path to hell
A twist of the knife
Feed our thirst for blood and fear
Who’s left standing
When the smoke clears
We only bring pain and suffering
Losing sight of the truth, lies within lies
Taken for granted again
Demanding an explanation, for my battered mind
Fighting til the bitter end
No sign of life
On this barren path to hell
A twist of the knife
Feed our thirst for blood and fear
Who’s left standing
When the smoke clears
We only bring pain and suffering
