Acheron - DIIV

This heart-pounding day has finally arrived

All my living footfalls sigh like the night

Outside the war between illusion and truth

I found wisdom lain among putrid fruit of

Desperation, cold, wild gift of youth

Urgent and dead-eyed

Urgent and dead-eyed

Hate the god

I don’t believe in

Heaven’s just a part of hell

Hate the one

Who wouldn’t save us

Shikata ga nai

In the blue mist death has finally closed in

All my gasping words at war with the wind

Worshipping the fear of hell left me lost

I’ve found something for us, souls who have crossed

Charon’s torrent cold spiked black with frost

Ashen and dead-eyed

Ashen and dead-eyed

Hate the god

I don’t believe in

Heaven’s just a part of hell

Hate the one

Who wouldn’t save us

Shikata ga nai

Nothing can be done

I’m no one

He’s my blood

Reflected in mud

Leave my body

Among the poppies

I’m nailed to your flaws

You were my god
