Signs of the Swarm - Shackles Like Talons lyrics

Into your ears, a barbed tongue whispers You've turned your back in a gaze Unspoken love, your skin starts to shiver Tempted to play with the pain Play with the pain Trying to recall what you used to be Losing the battle with adversity Embracing what once stood as an enemy Festering into the flesh You're feeding and the vultures are feasting A past designed by fire These are the chains you crave A past designed by fire Shackles you to your grave As you walk toward the vultures Fear not for your fate Chained and shackled with the vultures To escape this world you hate You'll accept any risk To escape this world you hate Caught inside a fever dream Scavenger of pain Soon the pleasure fades Alone, bound in chains Talons bare your pain Shackled to your hollow grave As your pleasure fades away Seeking out the vultures to beg For the shackles once more You're damned to their incisions Deeper and deeper and deeper You've grown to love their torture Your appetite is slaked And soon the pleasure's gone away Once warm shackle cloak Now binds your wounds Now binds your wounds A past designed by fire These are the chains you crave A past designed by fire Shackles you to your grave As you walk toward the vultures You care not for your fate Chained and shackled with the vultures To escape this world you hate A conscious carrion feeds The vultures circling high Shackled to the ground The talons rend the flesh now ripe And so the cycle goes 'Til the corpse decays Descending, the vultures search for prey
