Judge

from Summerland by VERA

lyrics

Drown me on the sun
Put your mouth around the barrel of my gun
Peel back my skin
Cause I'm tired of wearing this grin

Amassed to exceed my being
Downcast and I'm done believing

Relinquish hope
Forfeit to fear
Tighten the rope
Vision is unclear
An unaddressed note
Cause I forfeit to fear

Manifest the prophecy, accept fate in atrocity
Manifest the prophecy, accept fate in atrocity

I have got a promise of death, because threats unmet are just wasted breath
When the sun sets, you still sweat from the stress of your regrets and debts

I have a brand to maintain
In this domain, I reign
I'll take you from the pain to a hole in the plains
Try not to strain, it'll be more humane

Blood and veins and bleach circle down the drain
And you're a faded stain
Where you'll remain; there's nothing left to gain

I have got a promise of death, because threats unmet are just wasted breath
When the sun sets, you still sweat from the stress of your regrets and debts

Relinquish hope
Forfeit to fear

Release the hounds and hunt me down just to take my crown
Keep me bound once I'm found
Until I'm prepared to live in the ground

Peel back my skin and tell me what you see within

Find me, bind me, confine me
Assign me a day to finally be free
Wait for the day my soul finds its way
Waiting for the judge when I become the prey
