lyrics

We are the ones that are tangled up chains
This modern slavery lay waste upon each trail
Crushed hopes and sweet illusions to come

A final prayer for the ones without a soul
Just like sheep with no shepherd for the herd
An empty bottle and broken trust for the young

Extend the lease for at least one year
This broken vehicle will not steer
We keep on struggling for profit and acceptance
A final prayer for the ones who lost
Everyday is a new wound
Let’s patch it up and get back up again

We are the ones that are tangled up chains
This modern slavery lay waste upon each trail
Crushed hopes and sweet illusions to come

We keep on searching for a meaning in our past
We keep on asking for how long will this shit last
An endless struggle for salvation at last

Extend the lease for at least one year
This broken vehicle will not steer
We keep on struggling for profit and acceptance
A final prayer for the ones who lost
Everyday is a new wound
Let’s patch it up and get back up again

about

Achilles Sweden

Achilles hails from the cold north of Europe – the small Swedish town Oskarshamn. The five piece group deliveres furious crust metal with d-beats mixed with crushing mosh and agressive, yet experimental, post rock.
