lyrics

[K]
So the fingers point back.
The reciprocal is infinite.
This is what I have become.
The armageddon.

[M]
Write my poems in your skin.
Tear them out then start again.
Countless tries to be renewed.
Venom’s kiss your fate imbued.

[K]
Punch the number.
Pull the trigger.
The gavel and the axe will descend.
Tear the leather
From my fingers.
A mask for crimes I cannot defend.
I am the devil’s tools.
I am the devil’s house.
Begin the end.
Dismantle/disassemble.
I have seen what I am.
There is nothing I resemble.

[M]
Would you play the hero’s role?
Turn the sword and pierce your soul.
I am not the source of sin.
Seeds of hell sprout up within.

[P]
Sacred and profane out of the same mouth.
Bitter water flowing from a sweet spring.
Demons occupying this empty house.
Blasphemy and blessing intertwining.

[S]
Gorge and purge.
Binge and starve.
Devour the other.
Deride the beast.
Gorge and purge.
Binge and starve.
Return to vomit.
Renew the feast.
To me...to me...open shame.
To Thee...to Thee...mercy...
Lord, open my eyes.
I want to see You.
Lord, tear out my eyes
And take them with You.
