- - - SERPENTINE : KISS MY SCARS - - -


I turn the rusted screws of fate
On the road no one else travels
Walk alone through the thorns of hate
Tattoo my flesh with their poison
The configuration unravels

Condemned by the powers that be
I peel my skin to feed the snake
Vengeance in the blackest of hearts
You offer nothing but the stake

Vermin comes with tragical dusk
When Faith is such an evil bitch
Pay homage with libertine lust
Serpents come for feeding frenzies
What am I but an unsightly lich?

Condemned by the powers that be
I peel my skin to feed the snake
Vengeance in the blackest of hearts
You offer nothing but the stake

Decapitation of the meek
I rise serpentine
Now you will kiss my scars

Sip the venom from my fangs
Burn the world and kill everything
Praise my name in dark grimoires
Place your souls in canopic jars
Sip the venom from my fangs
Burn the world and kill everything
Praise my name in dark grimoires
Place your souls in canopic jars

And condemn the powers that be
I peel my skin to feed the snake
Vengeance in the blackest of hearts
You offer nothing but the stake

We'll praise the moon when the fun fails
And become creatures beyond light
There's no one left to tell the tale
Herald the apocalypse storm
And wish upon the cusp of night

Condemned by the powers that be
I peel my skin to feed the snake
Vengeance in the blackest of hearts
You offer nothing but the stake

Raise your horns
The time has come
For you to reign with me
In eternal darkness

Extermination of the weak
I rise serpentine
Now we will kill the stars
Decapitation of the meek
I rise serpentine
Now you will kiss my scars
