The Gift of Silence - The Agonist

I’ve had all I can take

To hate for hate’s sake

Tearing down what you cannot create

The time has come to be put to sleep

A gift of silence for a herd of sheep

Nature is red in tooth and claw

Did they tell you you must be

The first without a flaw?

Nature is red (Is red)

In tooth (In tooth)

And in claw

Let it rain, rain all over me

Till the water will no longer bleed

Oh, let it rain so you will see

What it’s like, what it’s like to be free

I stand before dangerous territory

Staring the enemy right in the eye

If only I could cross the line

Seize control, don’t let the currents divide

The pattern is equal

For those who play the game

The pattern is flawless

Don’t you dare deny the blame

Let it rain, rain all over me

Till the water will no longer bleed

Oh, let it rain so you will see

What it’s like, what it’s like to be free

Let it rain, pour it all over me

I will shed my scales into the sea

Let it rain, pour it all over me

I will sit there and let you repeat

Till your words will no longer bleed

Let it rain, rain all over me

Till the water will no longer bleed

Oh, let it rain so you will see

What it’s like, what it’s like to be free
