Aberrant Waltz

Pray for my naïveté

Swallowed whole by metal teeth

Left to rot, forced decay

Tore out their fucking spines

Give into your broken mind

I've come undone

Raw shame (renders me blind)

Grief, not another victim, alive where folly dies

Oh, that scraping grind (echoes out behind my eyes)

Don't you worry, boy, just forget what they endured

(Death comes far and wide)

Lost in the dark, a walking cadaver of death

Does it ever come, does it ever run, and does it hide?

Pay the silent debt, reap

Desolate surrender

The gallows, they beckon and call

I want to know who bid this damned rope be tied 'round my fucking neck

You know what you must do, you know what you must do

You know what you must do, you know what you must do

Damn your wretched soul to your fate!

Fall, prey

Pilot of the feeling corpse

It bones are chaining me

Forced to shoulder all of the loss

Claw towards salvation

Grasp for an end to this aberrant waltz

Pray, oh Earth, you open thy maw

Tear me apart

Impartial teeth

Will my soul to thee, great entropy

Lost in the thicket, the angels abandoned

Knives tore off their small wings and all I fucking see is the tower

Constricting, oppressing, my mind turns to dust and my heart fills with pus

And the steel drowns out their lamenting cries (God won't listen)

Reconstruct my consciousness (deconstruct divine)

Clotted blood drips off of my fucking hands

Depraved catastrophe consumed me then

This sin tethers (sows into me)

Strike me down, take what's left

Shepherd me, death
