Grit Anthem

Echoes calling from the space inside A silent cry that's looking for a sign Walls are closing, suffocating dreams Voices hollow where my soul once screamed Drift away to where the night is grown Through the silence, through the darkness shown Shadows whisper in the faded light Every chord becomes a darkened guide And time marches with a heavy stride To offer up the truth we always hide Lead me to the storm above I can't find my path alone Take my hand, we'll walk the razor's edge Unveil the pain that's hiding in the tread Blistered fingers from the lies we've clung In this grunge ballad that we've sung Flickering candles of our darkest fears Illuminate the scars of all our years Find the rhythm in the crushing beat A pulse within the cold, damp street Grit and grime underfoot, we find An anthem raw, unrefined Heavy chains that pull us down With every wrenching, gnarled sound
