The sins of the fathers have condemned the children We inherit what you leave behind, we inherit the end
Relief is found in nothing, there is only decay You left us with no choice, you left us with no say There is no way out, there’s no escaping this place You’ve already hammered the nails
How dare you reject the blame How dare you try to wash your hands, when you’re the ones who lit the flame
We’re doomed to live a life we never wanted to live A curse disguised, disguised as a gift On the edge of the highest cliff, raised to stare straight into the abyss A curse disguised, disguised as a gift
Your mistakes are hidden in plain sight, guilt masked by blinding light You don’t fool the eyes that hides in the night, can’t force-feed us your lies
You dug a hole and you called it our home You dug a grave, convinced us there was something to save Convinced us all that we shared your blame We see through it all, we will never be the same
We inherit the end The sins of the fathers have condemned the children We inherit what you leave behind, we inherit the end
We’re doomed to live a life we never wanted to live A curse disguised, disguised as a gift On the edge of the highest cliff, raised to stare straight into the abyss A curse disguised, disguised as a gift
And yet you wonder why we despise you and your kind You spilled innocent blood and marked all of us You marked all of us
