Lyrics

[Verse 1] Within struggle, amidst horror Inside conflict, visceral war Make a stand here, vanquish all fear Don't hesitate, eradicate [Chorus] Torn between Scylla and Charybdis Feel the fear ripening, go taste it Torn between Scylla and Charybdis Feast fruits of valor, if you face it [Verse 2] Walls of carnage surround your weakness Crash down like oceans, wait for the light In total darkness, drowning in bleakness Awaiting death's grip, cry out for life [Refrain] Divided by destiny Torn between death and doom Destruction by decision Fate shows me my open tomb [Verse 3] Apprehension runs down your chin Masticate it, suck those tears in Life's a battle, perpetual crusade One against all, time to wield the blade [Chorus] Torn between Scylla and Charybdis Feel the fear ripening, go taste it Torn between Scylla and Charybdis Feast fruits of valor, if you face it [Verse 4] In total darkness, drowning in bleakness Awaiting death's grip, cry out for life [Refrain] Divided by destiny Torn between death and doom Destruction by decision Fate shows me my open tomb A fight that tests the substance Of all that you call your life Destruction by decision Fate shows me my open tomb [Solo: Corey Beaulieu] [Bridge] Face down that which makes you bleed Turn it 'round and force your seed down Down [Solo: Paolo Gregoletto] [Solo: Matt Heafy] [Bridge] Face down that which makes you bleed Turn it 'round and force your seed down Down [Solo: Paolo Gregoletto] [Chorus] Torn between Scylla and Charybdis Feast fruits of valor, if you face it [Verse 5] Walls of carnage surround your weakness Crash down like oceans, wait for the light In total darkness, drowning in bleakness Awaiting death's grip, cry out for life [Refrain] Divided by destiny Torn between death and doom Destruction by decision Fate shows me my open tomb A fight that tests the substance Of all that you call your life Destruction by decision Fate shows me my open tomb
