lyrics

Embracing this gift of sin. Purified in the infernal fires of liberation.
Drifting between fragments of dreams. Horrors bleeding into reality.
Devouring endlessly. Transforming into a monstrosity.

Regret shackled me to a well overflowing with death and thoughts of despair
My path was stained with blood that obscured my path.
still I pushed forth with this ghost at my back.

Take me away from this place. I Beg please end this pain.
Tearing at my own flesh just to feel some ease.
Burying my guilt in sadomasochistic ecstasy.

Giving into the evil festering. Bending to this daemon I have kept suppressing.
Submitted to its nefarious will. Devoted to the depraved rites of this ritual.
Soul Disintegration. malevolent transmutation. Ive Taken the forsaken vow of blasphemy.
Regret had shackled me to a well overflowing with death and thoughts of despair my path was stained with blood that obscured my path still I pushed forth with this ghost at my back.
Take me away from this place. I beg please end this pain.
Tearing at my own flesh just to feel some ease.
On this eve I commit the ritual of heresy.

Pulled down by the weight of dread.
Take this skin burn it to ash
Cast it into the wind
This fragile form has no more purpose
I will begin my life again through death.
