Lyrics Butcher Babies

Butcher Babies

The Cleansing

We’re slowly twitching to the fire that burns but plays dead

Stand aside and watch us burn

Break down the walls we’ve made

Oh! Break! Down the walls we’ve made

Break!

Don’t say anything cause anything could burn the flame out cold

The screaming voices in your head, just silent sounds ignored

And I’m telling you that this will be the last time

And I’ll wash my hands of this

We built these walls

We built them for protection

Just to crumble to my feet

We built these walls

We built them for protection

In the end I’ll be the one who’s killing me

It’s killing me! It’s killing me! It’s killing me!

Forget about that fire we lit, unmask that lifeless face

We’ve cooked and burned from limb to limb

Trapped in this iron cage

A game for the fallen

A song for the sullen

Stand aside and watch us burn

Break all the walls we’ve made

Oh! Break! Down the walls we’ve made

Break down
