[Verse 1]
I woke in a ruin of jawbones
Skies made of clinker and smoke
Every god here is rusted hollow
Every sermon a choke
A choke
Children carve prayers into concrete
With fingernails
Blood
And stone
Saints hang from rebar like lanterns
Their ribs still ringing alone
[Chorus]
Colossus of teeth
Grinding the world to sand
Kneel in the mouth
Of the thing you command
Colossus of teeth
Chews through your crown and creed
You built this beast from your hunger
Now let your hunger feed
[Verse 2]
You stitched a throne out of spines
Called it love
Called it law
Fed it your neighbors and brothers
And swore you never saw
You drink from a barrel of ashes
Say it's wine
Say it's peace
But every promise you murder
Crawls back under your seat
[Breakdown]
Bite down
On the hands that raised you (hey!)
Spit bone
On the flags that praised you
Drag your name
Through the pit you paved
You are not lost
You were never saved
[Chorus]
Colossus of teeth
Grinding the world to sand
Kneel in the mouth
Of the thing you command
Colossus of teeth
Chews through your crown and creed
You built this beast from your hunger
Now let your hunger bleed
