LAMENTS OF THE DAMNED

On the cusp of midnight
Came a beast to my chamber door

The devil in the coffin
Swallowed the moon
That I gave to you
Left me alive but rotten
Pride goeth before the swoon
D O O M
Flys upon graveyard wings
Infernal choirs sing
TO ME
On the cusp of chaos

I choked on the bitter pill
So that I may feel the pain

Just give me one more chance - fix
The difference between night and day
It's plane to sea - can't you see?
Just give me one more chance - sick
Of all this bullshit every day
I fail to see what's for me

The body on the rope swinging
In the corpse breeze
At the crack of noon
To wails of dusk screaming
This, the nightmare in the dream
R U N E S
Spell out my Goddamned name
Straight into the bane flame
FOR ME
To rise from the ashes

The beholder guides me
To the warbands of the north

in my H E a D
KILL KILL KILL
e V E r yT h I nG
E v e R yT H iNg
everythingeveryone
E  V  E  R  Y  T  H  I  N  G

yet nothing
blissful nothing
SILENCE WILL PREVAIL
The nothingness

LAMENTS  OF THE DAMNED

Just give me one more chance - fix
The difference between night and day
It's plane to sea - can't you see?
Just give me one more chance - sick
Of all this bullshit every day
I fail to see what's for me

whispers dwell in the shadow of the veil

i can
HEAR THEM
as i
SUCCUMB
to
WEAKNESS
in

my





bones

I AM NOT WHAT WAS INTENDED
