Darker, Still

As we drown in ash
A forked tongue
Drips malice, harnesses ashes
Charred screams of your masters ring proud
Through pain the definition of passing
A graceful death disavowed
A new age is built on the bones of what never was
Spit venom of the mother, unleash hell of the father
Once tide now deprived
A compass in the abyss
From what made all of this will come to pass in time
Loyal to justice not peace
Despite your vitriolic purity
I will leavе this behind
Stake your claim in this Dead Sеa
Worship the vast expanse of all that you see
A first breath is all that is needed to, needed to breathe
I blaspheme and rightly know
Where this has led, and where it shall cease to go
A hateful heart with a righteous soul
Forcing my hand, clawing up from the depths below
A hateful heart with a righteous soul
Forcing my hand, clawing up from the depths below
I blaspheme and rightly know
Engulfed by light with each last nerve singed whole
A forked tongue
Spits malice, harnesses ashes
Atoll for what could have been
Savor their sickness drowned by your sins
Screaming in horror of what could have been
All flesh is worthy until it is not
A sorry excuse, a victim recused
For a sickness you've come to exploit
May you be engulfed by this weakness profound
Cursed by the lives you've destroyed
I have left this behind safely, you'll find peace in the warmth of others
You trust in those you love whose thoughts are not in our own blood
A single moment of peace amongst crippling anxiety
Skin prison domain, cold black salvation, compliance now fucking reigns
You've survived enough
Solely loyal to an everlasting pain that brings, that brings strength
All flesh is worthy until it is not
All flesh is worthy
You've survived enough
The fire will keep you warm until it burns you alive
A hateful heart with a righteous soul
Forcing my hand, clawing up from the depths below
A hateful heart with a righteous soul
Forcing my hand, clawing up from the depths below
I blaspheme, and rightly know
Where this has led, and where it shall cease to go
