Blue skies turn black with the angel's descent
Spiraling from Heaven like a dead star of sad laments
The winter moon heralds the lashing storm
As I crashed to the earth
Find myself tangled in the thorns

I am the poisoned star
Wormwood
Is my name and my scar
Wormwood
Carrion legacy
Wormwood
Dementia destiny
Wormwood

Give yourself to the flame
Give yourself to the flame
Give yourself to the flame
Give yourself

One more reason to snuff another breath
Fall with me to the maw, hold tight, I am the God of Death
Suns asunder fail to warm these dark days
Murdering intentions
That's better abandoned, depraved

Give yourself to the flame
Give yourself to the flame
Give yourself to the flame
Give yourself

Another poisoned scar
Wormwood
Bitterly named, my star
Wormwood
Necrotic legacy
Wormwood
Infernal destiny
Wormwood
Wormwood

I was born to suffer
Raining blood from above
The menstrual pus of Jesus
Squirts from his fucking cunt

And the sheep lap it up
A pathetic disease
Enthralled by words of Jesus
Raped in the name of God

Wormwood
Wormwood

With one last sigh the world plunges to flame
And annihilation sweeps its fist across tired planes
Of existence, a chrysalis of doom
Casts its light on the sky
To vandalize new sacred moons

Give yourself to the flame
Give yourself to the flame
Give yourself to the flame
Give yourself

Another poisoned scar
Wormwood
Bitterly named, my star
Wormwood
Necrotic legacy
Wormwood
Infernal destiny
Wormwood
Wormwood

In the blink of an eye
The sands of time run dry
Jesus chokes on the cock of sin
And gags eternally

Lead his children to death
And spurn the word of God
My total fucking damnation
Is glorified in song

I am the poisoned star
Wormwood
Is my name and my scar
Wormwood
Carrion legacy
Wormwood
Dementia destiny
Wormwood

Give yourself to the flame
Give yourself to the flame
Give yourself to the flame
Give yourself to me

Wormwood
Wormwood
