So It Begins Bloodstone
[Chorus: Staton Roberts]
Empty handed, we enter the world
And with bare feet we leave
Beginnings and ends aren't what matter most
It's the journeying that's in between
[Verse 1: Staton Roberts]
We are the wanderers
We are redemption
We are the calloused ones
We are the contagion
We descend with a zealous heart
And ambitious mind
We are the advent youth
Grasping answers through the hands of time
[Verse 2: Staton Roberts]
Come ashore from the seas of deception
Take only what removes the veil
For they drink cruelty and feast on temptation
As we push to be a part of this world, doomed to fail
[Verse 3: Staton Roberts]
Can we not learn to live?
Can we outswim our sin?
Can we not learn to live?
Can we outswim our sin?
For the fortunate are blind in this paradise lost
We stained the world blood red at what cost?
[Chorus: Parker Jarrett]
Empty handed, we enter the world
And with bare feet we leave
Beginnings and ends aren't what matter most
It's the journeying that's in between
[Bridge: Staton Roberts]
Behold the beast that is ignorance
Stomping on the ideals of a better man
Blackened margins hold our doubt
As we wait for the time to run out
Out
[Verse 4: Staton Roberts]
We ascend with a darkened heart and calloused mind
Hoping to find the answers
Turning this mortal coil from beginning to end
Desperate to stop the cancer
[Interlude: Parker Jarrett]
We can learn to live
We can begin again
[Chorus: Parker Jarrett]
Empty handed, we enter the world
And with bare feet we leave
Beginnings and ends aren't what matter most
It's the journeying that's in between
[Outro: Parker Jarrett and Staton Roberts]
We are the wanderers
We are redemption
