Cruel Bloom Lyrics by Converge

Axe to Fall

2009

(Verse 1)
Voracious children and wolves
Sharpen their teeth on our bones
Carrion feeds the wretched
Vacant eyes peer through the hole

(Verse 2)
Beggars and thieves
Bring down a common enemy
While pawnshop kings and corner queens
All hawk their souls for gold

(Chorus)
Lifelong victims pound and claw at the ground
Searching for a way out of their skin
Writhe in the cruel bloom

(Verse 3)
Trying to find beauty
In flesh torn from me
Trying so hard not to lose you
In cobwebs and empty hearts

(Chorus)
Lifelong victims pound and claw at the ground
Searching for a way out of their skin
Writhe in the cruel bloom

Witness the ghostlike shades of ourselves
Searching for any way out of our skin
Writhe in the cruel bloom

(Outro)
Harvest your own
Suffer no fools they will not have their day
Your broken wings drag us down into the shadows
There´s no room for foul soil on this good earth
