When the Blade Drops - Hatebreed

Chains forged and worn like a willful captive

Link by link as all life is passing

Self-imposed rusted iron dread

No consolation overhead

Sharpened steel gleams - choice is made

The edge cuts clean - drop the blade

The sand is down to its final grain

With every crown comes the guillotine

This one sin you can't undo

When the blade drops your world is split in two

Hearts get flatlined when the grip is released

Beneath the harshest light where all is seen

Dishonor, disgrace and I'll tell you what else

The blade will drop no matter how much you beg for help

Sharpened steel gleams - choice is made

The edge cuts clean - drop the blade

The sand is down to its final grain

With every crown comes the guillotine

This one sin you can't undo

When the blade drops your world is split in two

The sand is down to its final grain

With every crown comes the guillotine

There's nothing you can do to stop it

Drop the blade

There's nothing you can do to stop it

Drop the blade

There's nothing you can do to stop it

Drop it
