Look at my tortured body
With your needles plunged deep inside
The tattered Edge of my black-toothed grin
The life I live condemned to sin.
Peel backs a fingernail and you will find a piece of me
The bible I burn
The cross I shun
Vanquish the light
Illumination undone
The rage inside is now a gaping hole
Black eye blind, a sinful soul
I am your religion, twisted perfection
Scream the pain inside, live the life I hide
Chained and tortured
But all in my head
Subconscious pain
Turned to physical awareness
Existential suffering
Manifesting madness
Coarse and rotten skin
Amiss blood vomit eyes
Broken wings shadowed by a tattered dawn
Empty eyes burn within a face silhouetted
Ominous visions
Of an inevitable fate
A viscous debt collected
The bible I burn
The cross I shun
Vanquish the light
Illumination undone
The bible I burn
The cross I shun
Vanquish the light
Illumination undone
Rapture of us all, stranger spoke in tongue
As he stole the light, left us all with none.
