Setting Teeth by Hollow Earth Lyrics

Rush of blood coursing my veins
Without warning sentenced to die
Heavy heart, shortness of breath;
Temple of aegis now becomes our tomb

Suddenly nothing is safe
Trepidation dulling my senses
Paralyzed in suspension of disbelief;
Drawn and quartered, disarmed to the teeth
Face to face with death
Overwhelmed by panic and fear
In suspension of disbelief;
Drawn and quartered, disarmed to the teeth
Nothing to salvage save for our lives
Fractions of seconds, abandon or sacrifice
Rush of blood coursing my veins
Hope is forsaken, we must escape
Heavy heart, shortness of breath
Save ourselves or be left for dead

Foreordained, time is up
Self preservation, I beg of you
In the clutches of dire straits
Lay down your sword or be laid to rest
With apprehension I must retreat
And force myself
To overcome my greatest fear
Teeth clenched in terror
I feel it crawling up my skin

I feel it rising
I feel it closing in
And with my final gasp for air
Cold liquid spills
Over my lips and down my throat
My lungs writhe in fear
Rush of blood
Flashes of horror fading away
Temple of aegis now a blaze of light

Darkness wash over me
Resonant frequency
Blackout
