Ever Forthright

Lyrics to The Counter Shift



failing to put in genuine effort

for the time, the end is official

perilous, the cost is way too high

and only in the way

steel frame, distant sight

and so unbreakable

the pattern by which you will now decide

and learn to let someone else be free



there is no escape from the past this time

fuck the bed that you're making

wake up in a burning grave

never mind all the times that we would fly

cut the chord, bend the fabric's essence

and moderate the lies



(oh god)

(oh my god)

they're coming out

bound for generations

the shadows of a fallen kind

back out, back out again

the bleeding souls

infected

draining the life of everything



we the ones who redefine the light

still we walk alone

because of all the things in life

the curse is in the knowledge

we the ones who redefine the light

still we walk alone

before waking up

close your eyes



we are the prototypes of the universe

We are alone



only believe the silence in your heart

cross the tragedy



failing to put in genuine effort

for the time, the end is official

perilous, the cost is way too high

and far beyond the pay

steel frame, distant sight

and so unbreakable

the pattern by which you will now decide

and learn to let someone else be free



blood, faith, christ, lies, blood

there is no god
