Lamb of God Hourglass (Live) Lyrics

Privileged a chosen few
Blessed with our time in hell
Witness a divine vision the day we all fell still
Rapture of the dying age
A shattered hourglass
Wrath of the warring gods and soon this too shall pass
It's only getting worse
Not worth a moment's regret
Each dawn another curse
Every breath a twisting blade
What will be left behind in the ashes of the wake
An ill wind blows this way
The edge of the envelope burns
Forbearance and my vengance
Payment for your intent
Fear death in the wings
In thrall of those fallen from grace
Petty is as petty does
Witness the mass disgrace

(Fear and death in the wings, in thrall of those fallen from grace
Petty is as petty does, witness the mass disgrace.)

God forbid you read the signs
Watch for meanings between the lines
Gehenna has now arrived
No hindsight for the blind
Your trust has been misplaced
Believed the lies told to your face
Became another casualty and
Now it's too late

You finally made it home

Draped in the flag that you fell for

And so it goes

The ashes of the

Wake

It's only getting
Worse
It's only getting
Worse
It's only getting

Worse

It's only getting worse
It's only getting
Worse
