I've been waiting for so long
For someone to
Mend all the blame
I've been searching for so long
For something to

Avenge my name, oh-oh

Avenge my name, oh-oh

Came here on time
Hope that it's not to late
Seen you at night
Biting the frost of silence

Can you cure us of this fate?
Mock the litany in its face
Is that you, Moatilliatta?

I've been waiting for so long
For someone to
Mend all the blame
I've been searching for so long
For something to

Avenge my name, oh-oh

Hex zero rouge he'll hibernate no more
The altars run dry
Prefect dictate final words
Does it sting of augur truth?
Was your temple left in ruins?
Is that you, Moatilliatta?

I've been waiting for so long
For someone to
Mend all the blame
I've been searching for so long
For something to

Avenge my name, oh-oh

This is the altar
The one that you let me die in
On your knees, how you wept
Much like Omerta
The quiet has shielded all intent
On the ground it appears like wrath
Avenging the lamb as bait
In a bed of nails you made
Who made this effigy?
Is there straw dressed in these fields

And now it won't be long

I've been waiting for so long
For someone to
Mend all the blame
I've been searching for so long
For something to

Avenge my name (this city, this city)

Avenge my name (this city, this city)
