Every Hour Wounds Lyrics - Insomnium

Walking on the gallows ground, rope tightly around the neck 

Raven-bird on each shoulder waiting for the pick 

Chasing for the shadows, ideal that does not exist 

On the endless road leading to nowhere 

Let the sounds and light wash over 

Bathe the darkest corners of melancholy 

Blow burning flames into your soul 

Reveal the thruth between the lines 

In this world every hour wounds 

Every second draws blood 

Every moment delivers pain 

If you choose so 

In this world every hour kills 

Every minute seeps despair 

There is nothing but suffering 

If you choose so 

Walking on the gallows ground, 

Rope tightly around the neck 

Flock of vultures circling above, 

Waiting for the feast 

Reaching through the blackest sky 

For the brightest star 

Seeking for the guidance 

From the night that never dawns 

Guided by empty promises 

Charmed by hollow words 

No truth or answers could be found 

Nothing but years numbered in me 

Gods are great, but the heart, the heart is greater 

From our wounds they're born, from our sadness they grow 

Gods are strong, but the mind, the mind is stronger 

In our scars they dwell, but in our hearts they burn
