Lyrics
Intro
Oh oh
Mercy on us
Look at 'em now
Chorus
Twenty eight names written in the black ink
Twenty eight names watch the ship sink
Power in the palm of a cold hand
They think they own every grain of sand
The fire is coming for the crown
The fire is coming for the town
Lord see the rot in the high seat
Lord see the devils that we meet
Post-Chorus
They hide
They hide
Running from the Light
Running from the Light
Verse 1
White gloves masking the blood on the floor
Silk robes locked behind a gold door
Big house
Small souls
Hungry for the hearts that they stole
They trade our peace for a wicked gain
They trade our joy for a little pain
Old rites
Cold nights
Trading all the wrong for the rights
Chorus
Twenty eight names written in the black ink
Twenty eight names watch the ship sink
Power in the palm of a cold hand
They think they own every grain of sand
The fire is coming for the crown
The fire is coming for the town
Lord see the rot in the high seat
Lord see the devils that we meet
Post-Chorus
They hide
They hide
Running from the Light
Running from the Light
Verse 2
Counting the lists
Measuring the weight of the bribes
Lying to the law
Building up the strength of their tribes
Mocking the cross
Praying to a master of ash
Tearing down the truth just to save a little cash
They got no mercy
They got no shame
They got no honor for the Holy Name
Bridge
God sees the darkness
God sees the plot
God sees the leaders left to rot
Judgment is near
Judgment is here
Judgment is stripping away the fear
Chorus
Twenty eight names written in the black ink
Twenty eight names watch the ship sink
Power in the palm of a cold hand
They think they own every grain of sand
The fire is coming for the crown
The fire is coming for the town
Lord see the rot in the high seat
Lord see the devils that we meet
Post-Chorus
They hide
They hide
Running from the Light
Running from the Light
