The Road is Paved With Blood/A Final encounter (If Only He Knew)

The Road is Paved With Blood

Forced from their home

Running from death

Never alone

Not knowing where to head

They were weary of others

Never knew if they had control

So they stuck together

The trust in each other for sure

The roads are paved with blood

No one could see

That this day would come

Where fear would roam free

When the bombs fall

And cleanse the city

Pray that it’s not

In our vicinity

Scraping by

With whatever they could

Hoping the next town

Delivered what it should

Cities were always

More frightful than the woods

Because the others

Lurking and hungry for you

Vocals, keyboards - Nathan Shouse

On the run looking for shelter where they can. They have to be careful. There are infected and not infected to worry about. People looking to pillage and plunder as well as those looking to turn you and feed upon you. They have to watch for aircraft bombing cities overrun. But soon enough, even the bombings stop. They wander from town to town searching for what they need to keep surviving.

A Final Encounter (If Only He Had Known)

They turned the corner and there they were

Stumbling and oblivious

But once they got the scent of her

It sent them into quite a fit

Back to back

Weapons drawn

Searching for an escape

If only he had known

What was to occur

He would have said,

“I love you” that day

She runs head on into a group of them. No amount of warning or screaming can warn her or save her in time.

He screams anyway, to no avail.
