"Grime" lyrics - KITTIE

KITTIE
"Grime"

Oh, there's a place where the lowest go
Where the brave fear to tread
Circles of Hell that all demons know
Neither living nor dead
Bound to a fury
Confined to cages
A die forever cast
A story told once
Now and forever
That we will never be free
(Held down)

[Pre-Chorus:]
We are the ones with blood in our lungs
Screaming for vengeance

[Chorus:]
Stained by eternal grime
(Buried under this time)
Hung up on this cross, but fate holds a sign
(The slate will never clean)
Stained by eternal
Stained by eternal grime
(Buried under this time)
Hung up on this cross, but fate holds a sign
(The slate will never clean)

There's a place where all demons know
Secrets kept in my head
And I cannot escape this fate
Crawl from under this dread
Haunted and exiled
Contaminated
A die forever cast
A story told once
Now and forever
That we will never be free
(Sentenced)

[Pre-Chorus:]
They are the ones with blood on their hands
Screaming for vengeance

[Chorus:]
Stained by eternal grime
(Buried under this time)
Hung up on this cross, but fate holds a sign
(The slate will never clean)
Stained by eternal
Stained by eternal grime
(Buried under this time)
Hung up on this cross, but fate holds a sign
(The slate will never clean)

[Bridge:]
Amends
In your eyes, it never ends
Amends
Aching bones beg to be free

[Breakdown:]
A stain that can never be washed clean
A hostage of this fallacy
Innocent
Wronged
Bow to no power
Bow to no king

[Chorus:]
Stained by eternal grime
(Buried under this time)
Hung up on this cross, but fate holds a sign
(The slate will never clean)
Stained by eternal
Stained by eternal grime
(Buried under this time)
Hung up on this cross, but fate holds a sign
(The slate will never clean)

[Outro:]
Grime
Grime
Oh
