Punishing lights again
And I can't see anything
Wax stranger
They give me eyes that are straight from the mud
And they look familiar
I've been blind since the day I was born
Lost worship
Satin death
Waiting for us to spar
Remember, remember there are snakes growing old in the yard
Torment my skin
Midnight sets in
Unholy dances
Stay in love while heaven's burning before your eyes
It knocks the wind right out of me
What? Watch what you're saying
Keep on dancing with your silk shoes on
Defiled, we'rе trained to offer our surrendеr
Wild surrender
Black swan tarred and feathered in the back
Now I'm left with all we ever did
Shade splits in 27 lines on the act
Cold blood don't move (they don't ever move)
Under fading lights, commemoration
I need something that brings me adoration
Sacrificial lives and dedication
I feel the serpents in my skin
Catch them all
Cut the neck
Bite the rope
Midnight sets in
Unholy dances
Stay in love while heaven's burning before your eyes
Midnight sets in
Exhausted frozen pain
The frost, it starts at the neck
Midnight sets in
Still yearning to be broken
Those eyes are burning black
I am of snakes and swans
I put the pieces back
