LYRICS:

This fragile dream
The darkness calls me
Heaven or Hell
Now Martyrdom
Trapped within the looking glass
The dark cloud holding back
When hate turns to an escape
The pain starts to stare back
Oh, fiendish one
Obsidian blade
Incisions creeping, widening new passageways
Where extremity lay, bullet through the frame
War bound heart bled dry in the frey
Forceless nightmare
Forged in…
Forceless nightmare
Forged in resentment
Cross my heart, pray to die
The sky is bleak tonight
Lost in time, stood side by side
I could die tonight
With one last wish
With one last wish
Through the veil
I’ve heard…
“Hate runs this world”
Pain fuels contrition
Nailed to the Devil’s pyre
Stacked high atop the fire
Sinking deeper, hail my immolation
I walked for miles
I’ve stood on mountains
I hear no god, I hear no voices
Cross my heart, pray to die
The sky is bleak tonight
Lost in time, stood side by side
I could die tonight
With one last wish
With one last wish
Incisions creeping, widening new passageways
Where extremity lay, bullet through the frame
War bound heart bled dry in the frey

[Toxic]

I shed a tear when I heard those whistle highs on the chorus, welcome back shrine

[ShadowfangTC]

Greg sounding really different on this one. Unique.

[To-attempt-too]

Greg hit a ton of different tones on this one. Awesome come back song, fellas.

[WEARETHEENDBANDTV]

Big Ups!!! James you did your shit & you really held things down for these dudes & for that you have our respect. Chris we were all a little skeptical on the writing, but you definitely prove us all wrong. Greg you are a goat kid 💯
Josh great job with the drums & production. 10/10

[Emnewits]

Very psyched you guys are back, Greg is such a talent & has clearly grown as a vocalist during the hiatus.

[garrettbrown]

“With one last wish” with that pitched super high scream, fucking GOLD

[MATTLEism]

I can't believe this is real life. Been searching for any hint they were coming back and I am beyond tickled. Welcome back.

[woundedmasquerade]

[camprice]

Thanks for having me a part of this guys! Special thanks to James for casting me. Y'all ain't ready for what they got in store next!

[chenz]

Greg’s new vocal style really fits perfectly. Gives me Johnny Davy vibes. Music as a whole sounds more mature, love it

[SmellsLikeEMinor]

Beautiful. This is exactly what I needed in my life right now. New Shrine.

[nn-NeuralNetwork]

Greg’s tone for his lows are so good it’s ridiculous.

[AveDestroyer]
