Dead End Part III: Waymaker

from Waymaker by American Arson

lyrics

I woke with a shudder at the break of dawn, the snow pressed to my cheeks. I was face down on the frozen ground at the edge of an icebound creek. I heard a whisper in my ear and my head began to spin. He said, "you won't be found, so lay back down and just let the winter win."

I saw their camp in the forest, they were cold and they were scared. And I heard the whispers once again, I could have my vengeance there. And I know we crave bravado, but if you want honesty, it took every bit of strength that I had left just to rise to a single knee... and just run.

(Chorus)
Sick and tired of this talk saying, "give it up." Give it up already. In my hands I've got the whole wide world, I'll be just fine. I don't know what comes next but I'm ready now, I'm ready now, show me... and I'll be fine.

And I know you used a simple man, a coward just like me to run the river thick with blood and make a way right through the sea. So I'll bury my bones in the soil like seeds, and water them with my blood. And in one year's time they will see the vine and the branches start to bud.

(Repeat Chorus)

In my hands I've got the whole world, never gonna let 'em break my stride. They've got another thing coming.

(Repeat Chorus)

In my hands I've got the whole world, never gonna let 'em break my stride. They've got another thing coming.
