The New Faith - Foundation

I have lived as a traitor all of my days

Allowed the enemy to enter our fray

As they climbed ranks, called shots, and spit on the faith

I carried like a sword, dulled by my ways

Who can I trust, where can I go

Now that the war has followed me home

For the crime of treason, I am not alone

I’ve lost myself to years of battle

Against charlatans that will continue

To confuse an open mouth with something said

And believe that violence is being brave

I’ve held witnss far too long

To dead heroes rsurrected with gold

To stab themselves in the heart and choke on their words

As we applaud

Who can I trust, where can I go

Now that the war has destroyed my home

For my crimes, I’ve confessed

I now stand alone

So I will lash out

Until I have no fight left

And when the turncoats come for me

I will fall on my blade

I will fall on my blade

Before I lay it at their feet

Because I will live at least once

With my head in the jaws of a lion

To know the aching joy

With my heart unburdened

With my heart unburdened

With my heart unburdened

By compromise
