The Creed
[Verse 1]
You wait for the sun to rise
Exploding sulfur to bring the high
You’ve done it a million times
What’s one more day and one more night?
You say that you’ve had enough of this feeling
I ache for you, one day you’ll find the truth
It takes one lie to change your mind
And then you’ll be “made new”
[Pre-Chorus]
We won’t be burning
We won’t be burning
[Chorus]
Death is not the creed that will define you
Tear away the pain and let it guide you
Left behind, internalized
Those days behind us are made new
[Verse 2]
The metamorphosis is failing
Invoking their own proof
They take their time just to sanctify
But the fear will rot the fruit
[Pre-Chorus]
You can run from this
You can run from them
[Chorus]
Death is not the creed that will define you
Tear away the pain and let it guide you
Left behind, internalized
Those days behind us are made new
Haunted by the pain of the familiar
Branded by disgrace, I'm a survivor
Rays of light materialize
Those days behind us are made new
Those days behind us
[Bridge]
(You won’t be fighting anymore)
(Or face the execution)
(Of life in disillusion)
You won’t be fighting anymore
Or face the execution
Of life in disillusion
[Chorus]
Death is not the creed that will define you
Tear away the pain and let it guide you
Left behind, internalized
Those days behind us are made new
Haunted by the pain of the familiar
Branded by disgrace, I'm a survivor
Rays of light materialize
Those days behind us are made new
[Outro]
We won't be burning
We won't be burning
