Chimera Lyrics

7 Generations Chimera

If you want my head, take it, but you'll never have my
heart for I have seen the way your countless atrocities
are spun into gold and the glory of your god shines only
in your endless cruelty So let it be known, I would
sooner stretch my neck across the chopping block than bow
at your feet I have no home in this prison with gilded
bars, so I can offer no allegiance only a pledge to...
Resist, with every ounce of life, with every beat of my
heart All that I can give, everything that I am can so
easily disappear, like grass blown by the wind but I
cannot embrace that which kills all I love, so draw the
line and count me as an enemy If I am to fail, I will
find more peace hanging from the gallows than dangling as
your marionette sometimes all I feel are sorrow and rage,
but as long as I am drawing breath I will... Resist,
until I've lost all I can lose, until there's nothing
left of me The hour grows late as the shadow of the
unspeakable spreads striking the masses deaf and blind
and it takes a loud voice to make the deaf hear, so for
the last time, let it ring that I will... Resist after
all hope has died the vision lives on
