The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Oh, looking back at what we once were.
Theres so much blood here its all a blur
Why did we end up her?
Brother you know that I loved her!
Her eyes shone brighter than the sun,
Blood now covers them one by one
But at the end of the day,
I'm sorry for what I've done
Angels descend and the fire burns your sin
Her eyes open again, I see the sorrow within
Pray for fucking forgiveness for your crimes
Beg all you want you know its time to die
The betrayal seen through my eyes
Infidelity... Crucify
Sweat runs down your face, now struggle to survive.
But there's no use you see the ropes are tied.
He'll feel the nails pierce through his hands tonight,
As the rope wears thin around my neck
And I see you cry when the blood flows
Despite the love you failed to show
The last thread goes through your eyelids,
You will not watch the last nail go in
Satan will worship me in his sleep,
'I am your God now... Stand up on your fucking feet!'
Pray for fucking forgiveness for your crimes
Beg all you want you know its time to die
The betrayal seen through my eyes
Infidelity... Crucify
Sweat runs down your face, now struggle to survive.
But there's no use you see the ropes are tied
He'll feel the nails pierce through his hands tonight,
As the rope wears thin around my neck
There's a darkness inside, a darkness in your mind
I cannot stand this, bring hate to me
Torture my soul as I torture you!
My mind is pleased now, your eyes are torn out
I rip off your fingers; lets watch them fall
Enter your ribcage, your blood pumps slow
And here is the heart that you don't deserve
You say, 'goodbye world! I squeeze tighter!
Hear all that screaming? You know it's all your fault!'
