SORNE - FIRST BORN

First Born from the album HOUSE of STONE by SORNE.
We are the last
of our tribe
of our name
hungry wolves
westward bound
we've shed our locks of love and rage
laying bone-naked in the sun-soaked
liberty of a numb and
desperate minimum wage
I kill without question
it's easier that way
cloaked in thorns
nervously gnawing
on my shame and suffering
trained to kill
everything
what have I done?
I slit my father's throat
with the knife that he gave to me
and the promise of his throne
what have I become?
I tried to be a man
I cover my skin
with paint and blood
and kill upon command
what have I done?
my mind is my tomb
I've given my thone to my next of kin
as I wait here in my room
I want to evolve
I'll suffer in secret it's easier that way
it's easier that way

These are the songs of five dead children whose voices echo and seep through the cracks of the American dream.
