DRAG YOU DOWN
BENEATH
BENEATH
BENEATH
BENEATH
Tell me, everybody
All the bodies
Who fail to grieve
Should I drag you all down
Drag you all down
Beneath the dead with me
BENEATH
BENEATH
I never ever meant to despise you
But everything you are
EVERYTHING YOU ARE
Makes me hate you even more
Your best turns me into this monster
I want to eat the worst
THE WORST THAT YOU ARE
To feed this beast that you made
BENEATH
BENEATH
BENEATH
BENEATH
Tell me, everybody
All the bodies
Who fail to grieve
Should I drag you all down
Drag you all down
Beneath the dead with me
BENEATH
BENEATH
I never ever meant to deceive you
But then you dragged me down
AND YOU PULLED ME DOWN
To the dregs of your level
Never laid a finger but you fucked me
Held me down and force fed
FORCE FED ME YOUR LIES
Until I believed them
beneath
beneath
the dead that rise
like lost phantoms
operatic
in their laments
BENEATH
BENEATH
BENEATH
BENEATH
I never ever meant to despise you
But everything you are
EVERYTHING YOU ARE
Makes me hate you even more
Your best turns me into this monster
I want to eat the worst
THE WORST THAT YOU ARE
To feed this beast that you made
BENEATH
BENEATH
Tell me, everybody
All the bodies
Who fail to grieve
Should I drag you all down
Drag you all down
Beneath the dead with me
Tell me, everybody
All the bodies
Who fail to grieve
Should I drag you all down
Drag you all down
Beneath the dead with me

In my honest opinion,
I do not know if this was
meant to be a lament
or something heavy metal hard?
I guess it kind of went both ways with
me ...
oh, my King; you continue to astound
with your lyrical poetics.
Ever thought of
singing this one
for real??

This was a rambling of a tired mind. I'm thrilled that enjoyed it. Reviewing it now I am quite pleased with how it turned out. Thank you for the kindness, Dearest Devil-lyn.
