Achilles Heel by Kataklysm Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Can you hear them screaming?
As they storm into the night
Where shadows take cover and lash at the light
King of the fallen, you come to pay
Pay the gate keeper
To save your soul
Betray your dreams untold
Son of lies, fire of the gods
[Verse 2]
Descend the arrows (descend the arrows)
Upon the burning bodies (upon the burning bodies)
You left to die
To die
[Pre-Chorus]
Fear me
In your darkest hour
I climb the ladder of snakes
Enthralled and mangles
[Chorus]
Stay with me
Until the very end
No matter how hard you fall
You'll always be my Achilles' heel
[Verse 3]
In war defeated
In triumph uplifted
I lift the spirit of victory
[Bridge]
Dawn the new age
Where everything means nothing
Where you're swallowed in black
And the vultures fly above
Denied existence
As you fall to your knees
[Chorus]
Stay with me
Until the very end
No matter how hard you fall
You'll always be my Achilles' heel
Can you hear them screaming?
As they storm into the night
Where shadows take cover and lash at the light
King of the fallen, you come to pay
Pay the gate keeper
To save your soul
Betray your dreams untold
Son of lies, fire of the gods
[Verse 2]
Descend the arrows (descend the arrows)
Upon the burning bodies (upon the burning bodies)
You left to die
To die
[Pre-Chorus]
Fear me
In your darkest hour
I climb the ladder of snakes
Enthralled and mangles
[Chorus]
Stay with me
Until the very end
No matter how hard you fall
You'll always be my Achilles' heel
[Verse 3]
In war defeated
In triumph uplifted
I lift the spirit of victory
[Bridge]
Dawn the new age
Where everything means nothing
Where you're swallowed in black
And the vultures fly above
Denied existence
As you fall to your knees
[Chorus]
Stay with me
Until the very end
No matter how hard you fall
You'll always be my Achilles' heel
