Pariahs

Nurtured by no one

Shunned and cast away

Left out like rats in the rain

Damaged cells assimilate

Lost souls will aggregate

Broken

We’ll never be your saviours

Pariahs

We took the fall for your failures

The bastard sons and daughters

The lambs that strayed from slaughter

So now you want in?

But now you need answers?

Cauterised the wounds and now nothing stands between us?

No bonds broken

No love lost

There was nothing to lose

You never had our trust

Broken

We’ll never be your saviours

Pariahs

We took the fall for your failures

The bastard sons and daughters

The lambs that strayed from slaughter

Pariahs

So sharpen the axe

Pariahs

We pulled arrows from our backs

Pariahs

Learned to breathe through suffocating hands

Pariahs

Baptised in flames no one could stand

Pariahs

So sharpen the axe

Pariahs

We pulled arrows from our backs

Pariahs

Learned to breathe through suffocating hands

Pariahs

Baptised in flames no one could stand

I know how it feels

We slipped through the cracks

Covered in ash

We bathed in the ashes

I’ve seen that look

In your eyes

Behind mine

Broken

We’ll never be your saviours

Pariahs

We took the fall for your failures

Pariahs

The bastard sons and daughters

Pariahs

And you can’t fucking take this from us
