lyrics

Draining sun, show mercy
Calloused hands and stinging eyes
Fighting my thirst to honour the tribe
Lethargy of the Bison's demise

Arid flesh flakes away
Ancient spirits all around
Every step in disarray
Dragging my kill along the ground
Hours pass like days
Off the crooked path
Existence seems Dead
Life force draining fast

I must battle forward
Despite my thirst
A deceiving mirage
My very being is cursed

There's a beast on my back and it's dragging me down
This burden I bear is stealing my crown
The weight of the Bison is choking my will
I'm breaking my back just to feast on my kill

I return, half dead and feeling the strain
Victorious but broken
Tonight we shall feed on the flesh of this beast
And slumber within its hide, yeah

Urgh

Huergh
