- - - SCARS OF HELL - - -


The hour of doom is here
Unfolding, remolding
Garrotting the Philistine
Berating this hopeless
Frankenstein
With religious tongues

Apocalyptic kiss
Straight from the abyss
Avenging the lepers
Long since dead in the mists

Lightning strikes on hands of death
Enlighten, unsightly
Harrowing the charlatan
Avowing my tragic
Curse again
Many times henceforth

Gothic and Gnostic
Sever the ties to Heaven
Goddamn necromantic
Frozen at the rise of vermin

Mirror, mirror on the wall
Paint a picture before the fall
When I bore the holy light
Long before the mantle of night

Dread siren songs on cruel lips
Her incest, dead caress
Heralding the devilish
Invading her maiden
Head, a wish
Escaped from her heart

My crucifixion vain
Blackened with a stain
Attempting genocide
Eradicate the taint

But, still, I could not love her
Faith resides, deep inside
Whispering of angels
Resounding like thunder
Webs strangle
The hope lost within

Magic so tragic
The sacraments made in Hell
Showcase necrophilic
Sipping from the unholy grail

Devil, devil in the glass
Gather within the blackest mass
Free me from these sands of mine
I have been condemned for all time

Shoulder the weight of the world
As they pound the nails deeper

To see the light of Heaven
You must bare the scars of Hell

Gothic and Gnostic
Sever the ties to Heaven
Goddamn necromantic
Frozen at the rise of vermin

Mirror, mirror on the wall
Paint a picture before the fall
When I bore the holy light
Long before the mantle of night

Shoulder the weight of the world
As they pound the nails deeper

To see the light of Heaven
You must bare the scars of Hell

Magic so tragic
The sacraments made in Hell
Showcase necrophilic
Sipping from the unholy grail

Devil, devil in the glass
Gather within the blackest mass
Free me from these sands of mine
I have been condemned for all time

Shoulder the weight of the world
As they pound the nails deeper
To see the light of Heaven
You must bare the scars of Hell
Shoulder the weight of the world
As they pound the nails deeper
To see the light of Heaven
You must bare the scars of Hell

light of heaven
scars of hell
