2. Torn Between Scylla and Charybdis (6:49)
Within struggle, amidst horror,
inside conflict, visceral war.
Make a stand here, vanquish all fear,
don't hesitate, eradicate.

Torn between Scylla and Charybdis,
feel the fear ripening, go taste it.
Torn between Scylla and Charybdis,
feast fruits of valor, if you face it.

Walls of carnage,
surround your weakness.
Crash down like oceans,
wait for the light,

In total darkness,
drowning in bleakness,
Awaiting Death's grip,
cry out for life.

Divided by destiny,
torn between Death and Doom.
Destruction by decision,
Fate shows me my open tomb.

Apprehension runs down your chin,
masticate it, suck those tears in.
Life's a battle, perpetual crusade,
one against all, time to wield the blade.

Torn between Scylla and Charybdis,
feel the fear ripening, go taste it.
Torn between Scylla and Charybdis,
feast fruits of valor, if you face it.

Walls of carnage,
surround your weakness.
Crash down like oceans,
wait for the light,

In total darkness,
drowning in bleakness,
Awaiting Death's grip,
cry out for life.

Divided by destiny,
torn between Death and Doom.
Destruction by decision,
Fate shows me my open tomb.

A fight that tests the substance,
of all that you call your life.
Destruction by decision,
Fate shows me my open tomb.

Face down that,
which makes you bleed.
Turn it 'round,
and force your seed.

Down!

Face down that,
which makes you bleed.
Turn it 'round,
and force your seed.

Down!

Torn between,
Scylla and Charybdis.
Feast fruits of valor,
if you face it!

Walls of carnage,
surround your weakness.
Crash down like oceans,
wait for the light,

In total darkness,
drowning in bleakness,
Awaiting Death's grip,
cry out for life.

Divided by destiny,
torn between Death and Doom.
Destruction by decision,
Fate shows me my open tomb.

A fight that tests the substance,
of all that you call your life.
Destruction by decision,
Fate shows me my open tomb.
