Trying Times

from Dark Compulsions EP by The Hudson Horror

/

lyrics

Death and reprisal
We put our god on trial
For a murder so vile
It defies all understanding

Such are the ways of men

I couldn't do a goddamn thing
As we watched you die

Senseless destruction
A young life interrupted
A victim of corruption, bred by greed

In this cold room we all stand and mourn
A crowd of mutes come to sing our silent song
We're all here to watch the dead perform
An explosion of hysterics
At your final curtain call

If I could climb my way to heaven
I know that I would hear him say
"My brother I did not die for nothing
I'm with you always"

In the darkest of seasons
I've searched for a reason
A lesson learned in this life lost
Another martyr to the frost
Another brethren laid to rest
Another debt repaid to death
The final chapter doth now close
In this anthology of woes

Life of confusion
A young man disillusioned
The answer and the ending were the same

Oftentimes
I wonder why
Things had to be this way

Through the dark and the light
We march on
Through ashes of extinguished flame
And I know you are gone
So long
I guess some things we cannot change

Tread forth with your head held high (x2)
Through the dark and the light

In trying times, I'm with you always
