Cardinal Red Lyrics

Go forth, kill everything you see
Abhor all the life I see before me

Born to raid the world of all its natural beauty
No remorse for those who fall in misery
Slaves to the irrational, with fear as your compass
Self-inflicted cannibals in monochrome

You called me fiction, dismissive, failed to listen
Now I will show you that I am real
More than affliction, this is a crucifixion
Of everything you hold dear

Now rot away
In the midst of an endless night
We are the dark
There's no escape
As the light's fading from the sky
We are the dark

Through the life of your deepest fears
I will show you that I am real

You preach repentance, but avoid atoning for your sins
So I will take all that you have, and all you've ever been
Within the thralls of cardinals, no one is innocent
Spilling the blood of those you love, this pain is permanent

A hypocritical nation of ignorance
Sworn to eradicate all of existence
Kneel before your fate, wrought by the hands of God
Now I bring your death

Just rot away, there's no escape, we are the dark
Just rot away, there's no escape

Now rot away
In the midst of an endless night
We are the dark
There's no escape
As the light's fading from the sky
We are the dark
We are the dark

Born to raid the world of all its natural beauty
No remorse for those who fall in misery
Born to raid the world of all its natural beauty (Just rot away, there's no escape, we are the dark)
No remorse for those who fall in misery (Just rot away, there's no escape)
Born to raid the world of all its natural beauty
No remorse for those who fall in misery
