| As we bleed you feast on what is left
|
| Of waking nightmares, prayers best left unsaid
|
| Sinking inside of the beasts we shall be
|
| Feeling desires buried, dreams best left to sleep
|
| Suffer the absence of beauty to know
|
| Years beaten down, passions unknown
|
| The bitterest ashes are the souls unwept tears
|
| Walls of your heaven and pit of your fears
|
| The heavens will fall and stars rain down
|
| On the backs of the broken
|
| Upon those whose beauty is spit upon
|
| Whose desire you shit upon
|
| If this is what your life will take from me
|
| If this is what your world will make of me
|
| These words which we cannot speak
|
| For the fallen are lost through the absence of dreams
|
| In skies that are ever bright we cast wishes into the darkness
|
| For the stench of your heaven clings to me
|
| And the stars weep for my shame
|
| This long, dark age has given us but faded memory
|
| -and all the words we will not write
|
| -and all the dreams that die tonight
|
| -and all the love in hearts grown cold
|
| -and all the beauty never known
|
| As heavens winds are rancid sweet
|
| As angels breath of carrion reek
|
| Suffer the children as they will dream
|
| As empty souls breed worthless ends
|
| As bitter hands stroke passions spent
|
| Hearts burned to black with the fires of prayers for the end
|
| And the stars weep for my shame
|
| This long, dark age has given us the faded memory
|
| Of passions spent — give me breath to face another day
|
| If this is what your life will take from me
|
| If this is what your world will make of me
|
| If this is what the world has made of me
|
| Then let it live with the consequences |
