Amongst The Shadows & The Stones - Trivium

Bloody corpses, broken bones reveal

A throng of clashes crushed, our nightmare sealed

Amongst the shadows and the stones

Dying mother forced to reconcile

A hellish landscape just to feed her child

Our interest waning, we desensitize

Abusive power now becomes enshrined

The harder we fight, the faster we fall

Stabbed in the back, defeated we crawl

The joke in the end that no one will know

We’re dying for nothing at all

The harder we fight, the faster we fall (Fall)

Stabbed in the back, defeated we crawl (Crawl)

The joke in the end that no one will know (Know)

We’re dying for nothing at all

Bloody corpses, broken bones reveal

A throng of clashes crushed, our nightmare sealed

Amongst the shadows and the stones

Shining skies will bring on death below

A compromising choice now rings hollow

Self-interest gaining, killing monetized

A million lives to push the bottom line

The harder we fight, the faster we fall

Stabbed in the back, defeated we crawl

The joke in the end that no one will know

We’re dying for nothing at all

The harder we fight, the faster we fall (Fall)

Stabbed in the back, defeated we crawl (Crawl)

The joke in the end that no one will know (Know)

We’re dying for nothing at all

Bloody corpses, broken bones reveal

A throng of clashes crushed, our nightmare sealed

Amongst the shadows and the stones

My fear is teething

Through salt and sweat

The air decreasing

Burns with regret

My fear is teething

Through salt and sweat

The air decreasing

Burns with regret

Crumbled cities scattered far and wide

The myth of mercy buried deep inside

The harder we fight, the faster we fall

Stabbed in the back, defeated we crawl

The joke in the end that no one will know

We’re dying for nothing at all

The harder we fight, the faster we fall (Fall)

Stabbed in the back, defeated we crawl (Crawl)

The joke in the end that no one will know (Know)

We’re dying for nothing at all

Bloody corpses, broken bones reveal

A throng of clashes crushed, our nightmare sealed

Amongst the shadows and the stones

Amongst the shadows and the stones

Amongst the shadows and the stones
