Like A Sword Over Damocles - Trivium

Dark winter

Necrotic

Seems this will never end

Transgressions

My burdens are forever

Denial

Holding on

Its grip, it chokes the life

Of what was and will be

The eternal present

Who of you will dare to sit in the throne?

Who of you will dare?

You keep hanging this over me

Like a sword over Damocles

My life held by a thread and it's starting to sway

Like a sword over Damocles

Declension

This poison

The power killing me

Detachment

Who am I?

What have I done?

The violence

Full of hate

The habit of our sins

Atonement buried in an unmarked grave

Who of you will dare to sit in the throne?

Who of you will dare?

You keep hanging this over me

Like a sword over Damocles

My life held by a thread and it's starting to sway

Like a sword over Damocles

Is it all you hoped for?

Is it all that you dreamed?

Is it all you hoped for?

Feel the weight being king

Is it all you hoped for?

Feel the weight being king

Who of you will dare to sit in the throne?

Who of you will dare?

You keep hanging this over me

Like a sword over Damocles

My life held by a thread and it's starting to sway

Like a sword over Damocles

You keep hanging this over me

Like a sword over Damocles

My life held by a thread and it's starting to sway

Like a sword over Damocles
