- CARPE DIABOLI -


Apprehendet diabolum in cordibus vestris
Quia non est nisi unus
Qui vero amat vos semper


We are denied among the clouds
The sun that warms our withered hearts
Look to the skies for an answer
Desperate words fall on deaf ears

A darkness shrouds our everyday lives
An existence upon a rusted knife
Twisting its serrated edge in us
Breaking the bond of family, God and trust

Seize the devil in your hearts
Because there is only one
Who loves you always

Carpe Diaboli

Give us freewill and take away hope
Nightmare insurgent, we can never cope
An empty shell we’ve learned to deny
Forging poisoned splinters within our minds

We never know a moment’s peace
Trailing the chains tethered to us
There’s no escape that I can find
So fuck it all and burn the world

Carpe Diaboli

Seize the devil in your hearts
Because there is only one
Who loves you always

Waiting for the other side
Placed beneath the sands of time
Is this the next great cull?
Herald forth by the harbinger

Carpe Diaboli

Seize the devil in your hearts
Because there is only one
Who loves you always

Carpe Diaboli

Apprehendet diabolum in cordibus vestris
Quia non est nisi unus
Qui vero amat vos semper

Carpe



Diaboli
