Matriarch Songtext
von As Hell Retreats

My matriarch, my anchor
Was the only thing to give me a grasp and connection
To what love was to me and what love could ever be
Instead, you decimate my thoughts
Of what a loving being I could have been

Now I will never reach that high
She was the saint that had believed in me, Lord
She was the only saint that I had eyes for
You left me here alone (what did I do?)
I was starting to put my faith in you

Could you not see that she was the only one
That kept the single golden thread from being cut?
From being cut from the truth


She was the only one that kept the single golden thread
From being cut from the truth

Nothing stays gold, or so I am told
Now, may I be so bold to say that this life is worth?
Nothing stays gold, or so I am told
Now, may I be so bold to say that this life is worth nothing?

I am only so young, God
I am only so young
But you don′t even flinch to take away my matriarch, my anchor

Innocence is dead
Innocence is dead
My matriarch (my matriarch)
My anchor (my anchor)
Is dead
