lyrics

From the decay of my moral code to whom indwelling doctrines I've disowned
To what supersedes my soul, whose eminence I've enthroned
Within the depths of me, seethed with great misanthropy
Aching to see you bleed, your sanguine bears such ecstasy

Soon my child, you'll forever sleep
Soundly like a herd of butchered sheep
Nestled all snug in your blood so cold
Reprieved of all ye Earthly woes
To dream of a world beyond such qualms

Beset by the bane, facilely the light begins to wan
Vacant this vessel lays, a darkened passenger to obtain
Once the bale pervades, thy eager blade swiftly maims
With all the blood that cascades, true contentment is attained

Fuming with utter disdain, I am of which those blackened hearts prayed, An antidote to an acquired shame; a Cimmerian savior incarnate Leading a prophecy, mis-shapened and ugly
Rest is but a memory 'til extirpation is achieved
