[Architects - Gravedigger lyrics]
An iron fist in a velvet glove
Another vulture posing as a dove
Do you have no shame? Look
At what you've become
You are the reason we are
Bitter and then some bitter and then some
They sing of saviours, we sing of sorrow
But we're still holding on for dear life
You sold us all down the river
I hope you choke on the vows
That you failed to deliver
You said you'd change the world
But death still flies east
The blind lead the blind
So we bomb for peace
Gravedigger, there's blood on your hands
You built this empire on salt and sand
Not all is fair in love and war
History repeats, we've seen this all before
We've given the vampires the keys
To the blood bank, oh
They say the more things change
The more they stay the same
While the liars leech, the crooked preach
So lie through your teeth
Lie like you mean it it beggars belief
Do you really think that we
Still fucking believe it?
You fucking parasite, blegh
There's no room in here for an honest man
Only callous and cold hearts
Gravedigger, there's blood on your hands
You built this empire on salt and sand
Not all is fair in love and war
History repeats, we've seen it all before
Oppressor, you built this empire
On salt and sand
Oppressor, you built this empire
On salt and sand
An iron fist in a velvet glove
Another vulture posing as a dove
Do you have no shame? Look
At what you've become
You are the reason we are
Bitter and then some bitter and then some
They sing of saviours, we sing of sorrow
But we're still holding on for dear life
Another vulture posing as a dove
Do you have no shame? Look
At what you've become
You are the reason we are
Bitter and then some bitter and then some
They sing of saviours, we sing of sorrow
But we're still holding on for dear life
You sold us all down the river
I hope you choke on the vows
That you failed to deliver
You said you'd change the world
But death still flies east
The blind lead the blind
So we bomb for peace
Gravedigger, there's blood on your hands
You built this empire on salt and sand
Not all is fair in love and war
History repeats, we've seen this all before
We've given the vampires the keys
To the blood bank, oh
They say the more things change
The more they stay the same
While the liars leech, the crooked preach
So lie through your teeth
Lie like you mean it it beggars belief
Do you really think that we
Still fucking believe it?
You fucking parasite, blegh
There's no room in here for an honest man
Only callous and cold hearts
Gravedigger, there's blood on your hands
You built this empire on salt and sand
Not all is fair in love and war
History repeats, we've seen it all before
Oppressor, you built this empire
On salt and sand
Oppressor, you built this empire
On salt and sand
An iron fist in a velvet glove
Another vulture posing as a dove
Do you have no shame? Look
At what you've become
You are the reason we are
Bitter and then some bitter and then some
They sing of saviours, we sing of sorrow
But we're still holding on for dear life
