The Reckoning Wears a Woman's Face

Verse 1

I sharpen my teeth on the silence

Watched them crawl for too long

Smell of fear like iron on the horizon

Time to settle what's wrong

Pre-Chorus

Rise from the mud

Rise through the burn

I've got a debt to collect

And they never learn

Chorus

Lay waste to the wretched

Let the earth drink them slow

Lay waste to the wretched

Watch their crooked kingdoms go

Post-Chorus

Go go go

Down with the hollow

Go go go

Nothing follows

Verse 2

They built their thrones on gravestones

Gilded lies and bleeding bone

I've got a hammer for their doctrine

And I swing it all alone

Pre-Chorus

Shatter the creed

Shatter the crown

I've got a storm in my chest

And I'm burning it down

Chorus

Lay waste to the wretched

Let the earth drink them slow

Lay waste to the wretched

Watch their crooked kingdoms go

Post-Chorus

Go go go

Down with the hollow

Go go go

Nothing follows

Bridge

I am the reckoning wearing a woman's face

Justice with a broken blade

Every promise they buried

I'm digging up today

Breakdown

Wretched

Wretched

Hear me

Hear me

Chorus

Lay waste to the wretched

Let the earth drink them slow

Lay waste to the wretched

Watch their crooked kingdoms go

Post-Chorus

Go go go

Down with the hollow

Go go go

Nothing follows
