Writhe Lyrics by Great American Ghost is a brand-new English song in the voice of popular band Great American Ghost, featured in the album “Tragedy of the Commons”. The lyrics explore themes of societal hostility, personal scars, and generational suffering. They reflect a world filled with deception, cruelty, and a lack of empathy, where individuals struggle against inner and external forces. There’s vivid imagery of power, isolation, and torment, with references to shattered illusions, fruitless efforts, and a metaphorical tightening grip symbolizing oppression and self-destruction. The song criticizes the relentless pursuit of control and highlights the consequences of ignoring compassion and humanity.

Writhe Lyrics
Take a look inside
Tell me what you see
When every hand that reaches out
Holds hostility
One step from an open window
One stitch from a closing wound
In a world of smoke and mirrors
Shattered glass can cut you too
Wear your scars for all to see
I know you can hear me
From your hallowed throne
No choir here or below
Can heal the hate in your soul
Tighten the hand on your throat
Tighten the hand on your throat
No fuel for the hunted
As they dress the table now
The Feast of Fools
Only scraps for the hounds
Bonfire of The Beggars
Wretched filth within the roots
Scorched earth for the harvest
Rotting limbs yield poison fruit
Generational torment
Suffering you crave
Empathy is but a sickness
Buried in an unmarked grave
You fear what you own
A tyrant without a throne
A coward that dies alone
Tighten the hand on your throat
Take a look inside
Tell me what you see
I know you can hear me
From your hallowed throne
No choir here or below
Can heal the hate in your soul
Tighten the hand on the throat
