[Lyric] Precedent (Smolder Glow)

Hide

It hunts us down
It tears everything we've ever loved apart
It erases life
It exists to curse us from the start

Be brought forth onto altars of dust
Sacrificed innocence to gratify bloodlust
Masks of black and red
Candle wax and flame
Haunted by the silent dead
Possession's endless fame

I am precedent
I am scorn
I am rage
I am agony
I am guilt
I am shame
From the inside, fear consumes
All that remains of what you used to be
This fortress of ivory and glass
Crumbles for everyone to see

Your soul is ours to sell
Lured by a blackened heart
Into the depths of hell
Masks of black and red
Candle wax and flame
Deafened by the howling dread
Unbound from what is sane

I am precedent
I am scorn
I am rage
I am agony
I am guilt
I am shame

I am reborn
