I know you can feel it Let it in People will still hate you in the end So hate back Plan the attack then they'll realize they can't crack The mind of a f**ing maniac The voice inside you always wins Your graves been dug so lie in it And commit until the end for your dear old friend And I promise that amends will meet at the end [Chorus] Why can't I be anything without you Because the scars will fade and you'll never age When you give your life to the mark of the blade The cold grasp of the past still haunts me I will erase everything If you give your life to the mark of the blade You can come with me or you can stay and grow old And let the universe swallow your rotting soul Turn a blind eye to everything or take a chance to be blind to model ignorance The voice inside you never quits It'll haunt you until your dying breath So breathe in and breathe out Reach deep within And I promise that amends will meet at the end [Chorus] Give your life to the mark of the blade (Give your life) I'll take your name beyond the grave Give your life to the mark of the blade (Give your life) Give your life to the mark of the blade I bleed the blood that is cut from the blade I bear the mark and i won't be a slave Come with me and be saved [Chorus]
