In this dark time of creation
|
Paint these hours in black
|
These moments only I know
|
And curse my soul forever
|
To scar me for what I have done
|
Beyond all comprehension
|
Of this paradox of creation
|
The cries of millions pass my ears.
|
|
Everything spirals downwards
|
As it has always done
|
It's so easy to live in darkness
|
When it's all you've ever known
|
Accepting a life void of hope
|
They swim in a river of death
|
Their pitiful souls know nothing
|
But a sick and desparate past
|
It all hurts so terribly
|
That I can barely stand
|
|
Who wants to see me like this?
|
Wanting to forget myself
|
And the choices I have made
|
The damned look for a savior
|
And search beyond their dreams
|
To take existance for granted - and immortality
|
Lost in the twisted delusions
|
And impossible beliefs
|
Of divine intervention
|
To save them from themselves
|
A speck of dust on the surface
|
A single grain of sand
|
Remnants of a sickening existance
|
Swept away by my hand
|
|
Compassion once a burden
|
Tonight I'll let it lie
|
Waiting to face the morning
|
Knowing I watched them die.

|
Innocence forever gone
|
Perversion reigns in this world
|
Decaying parasite of life
|
Destined forever to infest
|
Do not reach for me in faith
|
You'll be cut off at the hand
|
I'm not your merciful savior
|
I'm here to watch you die.
