This Is Hell Prelude (Again) lyrics

It begins with this, this is a declaration of intent
We're taking back all those somber years
We spent full of days, we wasted
Wishing we had stayed in bed
Our debts are paid in ink and blood
For all the things we've said

This is a statement of our will
We're not going down in history for standing still
We are spinning tires, we are starting fires
We are racing against the sun
Our debts are paid in ink and blood
For all the things we've done

We're making blood oaths
We're making promises to ourselves
And hoping someone's listening
Our debts are paid in ink and blood


Kiss the ground goodbye for a while
Fare thee well, everything we knew
We're trading in our lives for a song
And hoping beyond hope that it'll see us through

We're doing our best to make good on this
Fare thee well, everything we knew
We're trading in our lives for a song
And hoping beyond hope that it'll see us through

So what have you got left now?
You're gonna have to dig real deep
We're paying off our debts in ink and blood
'Cause these are promises we intend to keep
