Take now your eternal stand.

These are a combination of my favourite lyrics from my favourite band’s new album:
This is our call, to see these idols fall. Drag them out into the light. Let fate devour all. This is your fault. You fool of faith untrue. That we should face the grave with such a blackened view. I mourn your blindness. I die along. And swallow darkness. In misery is where I belong. I, I know the light is burning dim and dying in you. I know the pain that lies within. I feel it too.
This is what you try to sell me. Subjective nothingness. Pull your sickness from my throat. Let me breathe the truth. Let me breathe the truth.
Won't bow to man.
Won't bow to government.
Won't bow to greed.
Won't bow to false hope.
Won't bow to self.
Won't bow to modern code.
Won't sell my soul to a dead world.
I defy.
Scum of the earth. Power of air. You wanted the world. We'll bury you there. I close my eyes. Search for you. Retracing every step.
Be still in the pain that you wrote. See now, every scar is a choice you make. Every choice is a vow you take.
Take now your eternal stand before it pulls you in.
