Behead the snakes
Can you feel it crawling under your dead dried out skin
Every breath feels like a never-ending suffering
Can't wash your Bleeding hands
To hide away the things they did
The snakes keep returning
To celebrate the reckoning
Down the drain
Down the drain
When life's a dead end and you don't wanna pretend
Down the drain
Down the drain
There's only one way out, and you know it
Suffer
Embrace the pain
Hatred
Rising anger
Make them remember
Crossed lines
Suffocate
Bite back
Crush their spirits
End their will to live
Let them rot from in within
Show them
Where they belong
Enough is enough
Carve their necks from ear to ear
Bite back
Crush their spirits
End their will to live
Let them rot from in within
Show them
Where they belong
Enough is enough
Carve their necks from ear to ear
Off with their heads
Off with their
Heads

Thin and pale
Like the rest of the herd
Let them come in flocks
Cleanse them from their sins
And nail ‘em to the cross
Wash your head with blasphemy
Bend your back in agony
Cover your eyes with empathy
Let it rain on thee
Lay yourself to rest so I can watch you decay
Return to ash and dirt and I start to pray
Wash your head with blasphemy
Bend your back in agony
Cover your eyes with empathy
Let it rain on thee
Prayers for the weak
Overturn the throne
Turn all crosses upside down
Overflowing with blasphemous tongues
Songs of the forgotten son's
Fire's falling from the sky
Scorches the land far and wide
The last judgment is nigh
So pray for the weak

I am the one who you created by choice
I am speaking with your distorted voice
It's just the beginning
I am not done
Look at me, look at me
I am my father's
Son
I am the one who you created by choice
I am speaking
with your distorted voice
It's just the beginning
I am not done
Look at me, look at me
I am my father's son
A burning song climbing up my throat
My breath rests
in a blackened hole
Lustless and restless
The damage is done
Just like you said
I am my fathers son
Crack my head open
Tear out my mind
Tell me all the stories on which you rely
You stand and stare (You stand and stare)
I'll stop and gaze (I'll stop and gaze)
And I'll be following the
Same old tangled ways
Same old tangled
Ways
Same old tangled
Ways
I know you
You know me
Who knows the truth
Embrace the brave
Locked in a hive
Been told before
A thousand times
I am your spawn
The offspring of regret
Look in my eyes
And tell my what's inside
With every piece of you
I was build to withstand the truth
My mind is running
But I'm standing still
Your word is bond and it's making me ill
You are the one who was created by choice
You are speaking
With my distorted voice
It's just the beginning
I am not done
Look at me, look at me
You are your father's son

I got you trapped in my line of sight,
The perfect kind of prey I carefully choose tonight
The safety of your home is nothing to rely upon,
and I can see you hiding from the things that you don't know about
You're like the perfect disease to me
You make me sick, there is no immunity
Brutal and ruthless, yet calming luscious
Let me wear your skin tonight
I wanna wear your skin
Feel the warmth of your insides
Curl up and rest beneath your skull
Please let us share the same mind
And if you scream I'm gonna rip you to shreds
Paint the whole room red bit by bit
You're my obsession, my passion, the last one
worship your guts like the sacred child
I'm longing for your last breath
Make it count, let it bring me peace
A twisted version of a sickening perversion
Am I wishing for insanity or ecstasy?
Let me fix what I've broken
Oh please don't let me die alone
I'll make your mortal shell our coffin
For both our souls
I can see you crying through your window
Don't cry for me
You can see me smiling through your window
Die for me, please die for me
Our bones and intestines so pretty entangled
Cheerfully slaughtered
I swear in the end I will call for forgiveness
Unless you're not bothered

Since you've left
My life has been draining
21 grams of shattered glass
All that's remaining
All of my limbs and feelings
Won't obey me
The days are melting through me
Why am I staying
I have gone deaf and blind
I am decaying
Forced inside my mind
I can't escape it
Racing thoughts and silence
Occupy my mind
Tormentor and hostage
They Keep me up all night
Swinging up and down
while I'm hanging by a thread
I'm keeping my composure
till i see the sunset
I gave up on me
Colours turn to grey
All I want to be
Is a different me
And all I'm feeling is
Overwhelming nothingness
Since you've left
The noise hasn't faded
Deep down just shards of glass
Forever separated
How can I carry on
Continue living
When I'm still torn apart
A Piece of my soul missing
Tormentor and hostage
Keep me up all night
Internal dissonance
Vacant eyes

I'm getting sacrificed
Because of the oath i made
They chase me through the town
Feeding on my regrets
They tear my body apart
And scatter it to the wind
My flesh
My bones
My heart
The existential dread
All that remains
Is blood and pain
Come on push my soul
Over the edge
All pleading won't help
You created my personal hell
All pleading won't help
You created my personal hell
This ain't no place for second chances
This ain't no place for second chances
This ain't no place for second chances
This ain't no place for second chances
So let me tell you this
I've never been the same
I am a better man now
And you're the only one to blame
There's no need to look back
What's gone is gone
Someday the dust will settle
Before the final dawn
Breathe in, breathe out
Don't hold it back, let it out
Breathe in, breathe out
Don't hold it back, let it out
Death and Rebirth
Death and Rebirth
Death and Rebirth
Death and Rebirth

Tonight the hunt is on
And I am the prey
It slowly creeps on me
Surrounds me
like it is here to stay
The air is cold and I'm all out of breath
It devours me slowly
Till there is nothing left
Father of bones
Carry me home
Digest my hatred
Feast on my fear
You've taken all I've had
You've taken all I am
I've never felt so worthless
Chewed up and left to die
Come back and finish me up
Don't let me out alive
Rotting bodies around
They form an ominous sign
I'm another Sacrifice
Cast aside to die
My ears are deafend
Light is fading from my eyes
The beast crawls down my back
Deep down inside
My blood is boiling
While my body turns cold
Pressure in my lungs
My neck is in chokehold
The beast is calling for me
It howl's my name
I'm bleeding out on the floor
I don't exist anymore
The beast is calling for me
It howl's my name
I'm bleeding out on the floor
I don't exist anymore
Claws
Buried in my flesh
Pinned to the ground
I glare into its eyes
A well of lies
Claws
Buried in my flesh
Pinned to the ground
Fangs and claws buried in my soft flesh
A fight that I will never win
Fangs and claws buried in my soft flesh
A fight that I will never win

I'm sinking through the floor
Again and again
Lying alone, bothered by none
Again and again and again and again
The walls keep caving in
Again and again
Buried beneath the pain
Again and again and again
I can't help myself
I'm addicted to the worst kind of drug
Yet it soothes me because loneliness is all i’ve got
The shadows speak to me
They sing and dance and celebrate
But when the night is through
I'm scared 'cause it's just me again
All alone
Bothered by none
Can't change myself
All is hell to me
Nothing is well
All is hell to me
Forcing myself to smile
While I bleed through my teeth
Every painstaking moment I long for sleep
Forcing myself to smile
While I bleed through my teeth
Every painstaking moment I long for sleep
Gather around and watch me sink through the floor
Cover me with scars
Gather around and watch me sink through the floor
Cover me with scars
Don't wake me up
Let the sleep be endless
All is hell
Dont wake me up

The silence tells me
That there is nothing left to say
With every step I take
I can only feel it slipping away
I'm losing my grasp
On the only thing that keeps me afloat
Cold water is filling my lungs
I'm drowning, I choke
Give me a sign
Crushing waves towering
Above my head
I will not succumb
To the mistakes that I have made
Crushing waves
In the end
It always comes down to
Marching through hell or high water
Marching through hell or high water
Marching through hell or high water
Marching through hell or high water
And after all
I made the ocean my casket
Dead and buried
Below the waves
And I am
Marching through hell or high water
Marching through hell or high water
Marching through hell or high water
Marching through hell or high water

I am lost in this maze
A path unknown
Wandering through the valley made out of fire and smoke
With Every step I take a the weight I carry pushes me down
I am so sick and tired but I must carry one
What have I done what have I done
I need the strength to return home
Father please help me
Give me a sign
All of my efforts are in vain
It seems i've lost all hope
The path I must wander
It scares me
It fucking scares me
The shadows loom
The air thick with dread
And I am wondering
Deeper I delve
Into the abyss
Through the circles of hell
In darkness i linger
Deeper I descend
Into the unknown
Through the circles of hell on my own
All on my own
Crawling through mud and tears
There's blood on my hands
There's blood on my hands
I need to face my fears
There's blood on my hands
There's blood on my hands
The longer I try
The harder it gets
Filling my mind with more regrets
Don't hold me back
I can't stop now
Just wait for me
I will return
I plead and beg for forgiveness
For all of my sins that you had to witness
Hate me
Burn me
Rape me
Kill me
Church bells and choires call for me
I've reached beyond life and death
Wandered through hell and back
Payed back all of my sins
Just to feel again

Like a moth to a flame
I strive towards the fading sun
Hoping that I’ll make it through another day
But in the end
It’s just smoke and mirrors
Illusions keeping me away
Like a moth to a flame
This light is all I ever want
Please keep me warm so I can rest again
But in the end
It's just smoke and mirrors
Delusions keeping me awake
Wavering
Unfocused
Constantly
Stumbling
I just want to arrive
I start from scratch
This way no end
Optimism trips my legs again
It’s taking a toll on my mind
Every path leading afar
A maze consuming me
The shadows on the walls
They laugh at me
The promised land
Where I can rest
It’s right in front of me
Mischievous eyes
Can’t realize
His twisted tongue is fooling me
And when I watch back
To check on my progress
I’m running in circles
With no goal in prospect
But ahead of me it's very clear
Won’t be any longer here
The shadows cast behind
Not here to interfere
Fuck
But i'm tripping again
The memories repeat
Falling towards defeat when
I was so close to the end
Just seeking for serenity
Seemingly not meant for me
Forsaken by fate
He was contemplating life
He promise to himself
To keep his expectations on life low
But as these thoughts crossed his mind
He could feel that hope
The double-faced deceiver
Awaits him
And I still strive towards the fading sun
Like a Moth to a flame
Guided by light
blinded by faith
It’s all just smoke and mirrors
A scheme to burn me
A scheme to burn me
