Tsavo by The Last Ten Seconds of Life Lyrics
Tsavo!
No peace!
Welcome to disaster, plagued men reign disorder
Shredded all life with frailty (no peace!)
Hatred burns like fire at the core of desire
Flesh is all that we live for
It's human to believe that you’re safe with these four walls surrounding
But it all went wrong in the darkest days
We'll take everything away as light disintegrates
Over and over again you look back on the crippling doubt
It's a miracle how you made it out by the skin of your teeth
With the souls of dead men snappin’ at your feet
"Come on, lick those lips so you can taste it
Go on, close your eyes and feel sick"
'Cause when the sun drips down into blood
That's how you'll know the devil has come to Tsavo
To eat the heart of God! And kiss off the skin to drink of warm blood until all life has left!
Refined pure evil! So make no mistake
A quick death is the only saving grace
Right here, right now we can bury the hope of reaching home
The bullets (will run out eventually!)
There is no escaping the inevitable, the downfall
Two devils could never rise on broken wings, but we misunderstood
We're back to back, hiding in dirt
You pray but God's not answering
There's nothing left, reach out, touch the sun
For new beginnings, for our loved ones
Search for peace in a world drenched in blood
Embrace the end!
Over and over again you look back on the crippling doubt
It's a miracle how you made it out by the skin of your teeth
With the souls of dead men snappin’ at your feet
Come on, lick those lips so you can taste it
Go on, close your eyes and feel sick
’Cause when the sun drips down into blood
That's how you’ll know the devil has come to Tsavo
To eat the heart of God!
Look at you now! (3x)
Open your eyes, you're a fucking disaster
Look at you now, motherfucker look!
Welcome to a place of slaughter!
No peace!
Welcome to disaster, plagued men reign disorder
Shredded all life with frailty (no peace!)
Hatred burns like fire at the core of desire
Flesh is all that we live for
It's human to believe that you’re safe with these four walls surrounding
But it all went wrong in the darkest days
We'll take everything away as light disintegrates
Over and over again you look back on the crippling doubt
It's a miracle how you made it out by the skin of your teeth
With the souls of dead men snappin’ at your feet
"Come on, lick those lips so you can taste it
Go on, close your eyes and feel sick"
'Cause when the sun drips down into blood
That's how you'll know the devil has come to Tsavo
To eat the heart of God! And kiss off the skin to drink of warm blood until all life has left!
Refined pure evil! So make no mistake
A quick death is the only saving grace
Right here, right now we can bury the hope of reaching home
