Idols and Shackles
by Adamic

Album: Irregular Pulses

Verse:
Ancient deception has crossed my path
How is it that it could last
Enticed to gather it close
Blurring what I want the most

What started out as innocent
Revealed as malicious intent
Faced with a staggering choice
Will I rise above the noise

Chorus:
Break the earthly bonds descending
Feel relentless force unending
Throw the image in the fire
Build the flame now, build the pyre

Verse:
Afraid for my life as I dig in deep
Not as brazen as the ones who will to sleep
I must escape these hands
These thirsty desert lands

I reached for You while the image stared
I fought through the gravity the image dared
Can't believe I'd been so blind
The image glared as Your hand found mine

(Chorus)

Bridge:
Innocence has stayed behind
What will Your searching find?

We must make the return

Who can ascend
With head bent to spirits
Choose between the sword and snow
Cast this thing into the blaze

We must make the return (Repeat)

(Chorus)

We must make the return (Repeat)
Leave it to burn
