WENDIGO : SURREPTION

Crimson pours over the divide
I wish to see what festers inside
Soulless wanderer, you'll feel my pain
Thrashing underneath, speak my name

Hell whispers words of power unto me
In which I seek refuge from the filth
The motive slumbers behind the deed
Vivisecting numbness, an urge to fill

Now I must kill
Embrace the venom in my hand
Your flesh girds its will
Pulled into the abyss
Surreptitious, this night
Prefabricated and cold by design
Your soul is mine

I am the phantom slipping through the cracks
Aborted hope, there is no escape
Candle snuffed, the world becomes a cataract
Enclosing darkness turns the page

You ask me what I see in the mirror
A frozen landscape, this godless paradise
Hate corrupted, masticated by horror
On those limbs that beg to be adorned
Let your lust confuse
I'll take from you what obfuscates
I'm the only light you need
This demon freed
A carnal dream, a masterpiece
Choking on blood and vomitus
Waking coma, death denied
All survives here but the hope in your eyes

My heart was blackened by what claims all lives
Profuse, profound, silence was the sound
My lies could torture the weak of mind
Ingest them now, lest my hunger decide

Now I must kill
Embrace the venom in my hand
Your flesh girds its will
Pulled into the abyss
Surreptitious, this night
Prefabicated and cold by design
Your soul is mine
