[Verse] Remember O Lord The desolation we see Our inheritance turned to dust No sanctuary free Strangers feast upon what once was ours Beneath this weight We crumble Devoured by powers [Chorus] Chains on our necks We're dragged through the dirt Our fathers' sins The cause of this hurt Joy extinguished Our hearts turn to stone Crown fallen Left in darkness alone [Verse 2] Orphans we’ve become No comfort No shield Mothers broken Their wounds never healed We labor for bread Our skin scorched and torn Under tyrants' hands Our spirits forlorn [Chorus] Chains on our necks We're dragged through the dirt Our fathers' sins The cause of this hurt Joy extinguished Our hearts turn to stone Crown fallen Left in darkness alone [Guitar solo] [Bridge] Rise of the torment Our laughter erased The rhythm of sorrow No joy can replace With bowed heads We walk through the ash Memories haunt As futures collapse [Chorus] Chains on our necks We're dragged through the dirt Our fathers' sins The cause of this hurt Joy extinguished Our hearts turn to stone Crown fallen Left in darkness alone [Outro] Restore us O Lord To the days of our youth Rebuild our ruins with eternal truth Or have You forsaken Cast us away Shadows of ruin Forever we stay
