Oh, Sleeper - Son of the Morning (new album) -Breathing Blood 4th song

4th song from Oh, Sleeper's newest album, Son of the Morning

Regaining consciousness under a swinging moon,
He speaks of alliances that beckoned me long before the womb.
I've caused more wounds than I'm worth. I see now, you must not have heard...
I am the natural born killer.
There is freedom past your history.
"This air won't fill my lungs!"
Because you should be breathing blood.
See, this death, it was your victory so...
"Teach me to fill my lungs!"... never stop breathing blood.
I had it all so very wrong, but I fought... I fought with only song.
God, I've tried... I'm trying like a beast all alone, but my words...
My words have aired in poison.
Please teach me how to breathe because this air keeps failing my need.
Fill my lungs with what wont bleed from my enemies.
He said, "If death is victory how afraid of life can you be?"
I'm born a war machine not knowing which beckon to heed.
Will I rise as a tool for glory or be lost in dormancies?
I've regained consciousness under this swinging moon.
You filled my lungs and each breath heals this killer's wounds.
There is freedom past your history.
"But this air won't fill my lungs!"
Because you should be breathing blood.
See, this death, it was your victory so...
"Teach me to fill my lungs!"... never stop breathing blood.
I hear him speaking to me. For the first time he cleared my head... that's when he said,
"Only cowards keep dormant their sleeping strength, and soon you'll find,
Only the fearless will reach their potential's peak."
(What will wing these words if even the air is poisoned?
If the air is poisoned, what will wing these words?)
"Tell me, If death is victory how afraid of life can we be?
If death is victory how afraid of life can we be?"

"Tell me, if Death is Victory, how afraid of Life can we beeeeeeeeeeeeeee???"

my new favourite quote

[M1CH43L15]

@tldn it is a broken pentagram. The last breakdown and chant of the album is "I'll cut off your horns!" in the song "The Finisher". The album cover follows the same pattern as a pentagram with the horns missing.

[EpicGamers247]

@tldn the symbol is the devil sign but with its horns cut off. :)

I see now, you must not have heard...I am the natural born killer.

oh, sleeper makes me wet

[zackyj19]

@jollylollypollyholly I go around saying that to everyone. Haha.

[M1CH43L15]

@cvp500 Yep

[Drummer009d5]

@cvp500 and for the "ill cut off your horns" deal, its symbolizing how God will destroy Satan. Simple as that.

[Drummer009d5]

@cvp500 not at all dude, these guy are christian. the meaning of the album (as said in their interviews) is the ongoing battle between God and Satan. The first song (son of the morning) shows how Lucifer thinks hes more powerful than God and will rise up and God tells him that he has no power. And in the last song in the album(the finisher) its God's reply to Satans threat and describes how God is forever and Satan will be destroyed. The lyrics are amazing and probly some of the best ive hear.
