"Apex Of Disdain" lyrics - SYLOSIS

The gears turn with tedious motion
And as the pendulum swings, divides widen
Paradigm be damned. salvation comes at a price
And you will pay with your life

[Chorus:]
Step by step you lead a dying march to shallow graves
These poisoned roots become our earthly cage
Earth to earth, dust to dust
Only ash remains
Your salvation comes at a price
A disregard for all life

Status breaks, tense and overburdened
Frail shadows move behind the curtain
Culture be damned, salvation comes at a price
A concealed sacrifice

[Chorus:]
Step by step you lead a dying march to shallow graves
These poisoned roots become our earthly cage
Earth to earth, dust to dust
Only ash remains
Your salvation comes at a price
A disregard for all life

[Bridge:]
Under the sun
We all fight for significance
But I know under these watchful eyes
It takes so much more to feel alive
Under the sun, under the sun
We forgot where we came from
But you just stand there as those flames grow
And watch it burn
Watch it burn

[Outro:]
When you take more than you need
We'll bite the hand that fucking feeds
