Black Shatter Light
04:42

This broken heart in this wicked world
Black shatter light to suffocate
Death roams where love spawns, your lifeforce is withdrawn
As you choke on her embrace
Paradise lost by myself, salvation found welcome to hell
Slit your wrists and worship a new god
Retching throats and pulling skin, wanderlust rips you from within
Now you've found your rock star
It feels, it feels good enough to forget
It feels, it feels good enough to forget
Sick withered man, despoiled shrine
Black shatter light to cut the vine
No future to crave, no victims to save
Killing fields on shallow graves
Wretched world through wretched eyes, swallowed pills are swallowed lies
Turn your mind off, shut out the gray sky
Burning hearts in frozen hell, a brand new day in an old dark cell
You'll never be a rock star
It feels, it feels good enough to forget
It feels, it feels good enough to forget
It feels, it feels good enough to forget
It feels, it feels good enough to forget

When Devils Ride
06:39

We are lost
We are lost
I saw God in the back of the bus
He spits on the floor in pride and disgust
We can hide the truth
But we love the abuse
Pulling tight our noose
In the end we are used
When we disappear
When we disappear
When we disappear
When we disappear
When devils ride, angels hide
We are lost, we are lost
Devils ride, angels hide
We are lost, we are lost
Devils ride, angels hide,
We are lost
This is not the end, this is the start of something more
The start of oceans melting into dried up broken shores
A monument to hate, a shrine to all the things before
Before you closed the door, you're open now, but now it's gone
I saw demons at the front of the line
Because cutting up is a devil of a time
We can hide the truth
But we love the excuse
Pulling tight our noose
In the end we all lose, we are used and abused
When we disappear
When we disappear
When we disappear
When we disappear

Tongue Ring
04:08
|

She flicks her tongue ring at the sun
She sinks her hooks, her web is spun
She seeks forgiveness from no one
Her devil dance, her witchy fun
Something rotted and torn away
Black holes filled with neon blaze
Step back and watch the games she plays
Cuts her nose just to spite her pain
Demon smile on her fall from grace
Dying light in a corset lace
Open mind in a rusted cage
Catching lightning without a chase
We offer this, we offer this
We offer this, we offer this
We offer this, we offer this
Red fog in a crystal vein
Shattered glass in a vicious stain
She sucks the blood out of acid rain
She stabs a heart through the purple haze
We offer this, we offer this
We offer this, we offer this
We offer this, we offer this
We offer this, we offer this
Red lips on a windowpane
Cat eyes and a cobra brain
She won't stop even as she fades away
Until she's six feet underground decayed
We offer this, we offer this
We offer this, we offer this
We offer this, we offer this
We offer this, we offer this
We offer this, we offer this

Hail
04:56
|
|||
Days grow longer, I recall
Jackals watching nightfall
Jesters laughing, they've seen it all
I wait for sunrise, I stall
Factus sum sicut homo sine adjutorio
Raise your masters, praise them all
Devils watching saints crawl
Behind the church house, death calls
Line them up, paint the walls
Inter mortuuos liber
You are but a fragment
A tiny piece of this world
And one day we'll all see
The earth unturned
All hail black star
All hail man
Hail, hail
Hail, hail
Shattered glasshouse, stained scrolls
Stone disciples, stones to throw
Hold your children, save their souls
Save their fear most of all

Faithless
08:12
|

I used to believe in heaven and God
Then the sky cracked and the raindrops like daggers split the thought
Then I was a wayfarer, then I was lost
Off to places I used to know, places I used to roam
But it was never the same, you can never go back, you can never go back
To the places we used to go, places we wished were home
I used to believe in miracles and stars
I used to believe, I used to believe
One day we will face death and I know that we will hope then that our dreams were more than fantasies
And I hope we're together on that day
The day the sun fades away
Time slips away with morning rain
Time slips away with morning rain
I used to bleed, daggers and scars
When the world wept and tears fell and fire scorched the earth
There I was a master, vampiric god
And I know that I would hold back if I only had a heart
The night crawls in, makes a home
In the darkest, dampest recesses of what was once your soul
I still believe in nothing
I still believe in nothing
One day we will face death and I know that we will hope then that our nightmares were just nightmares
Time slips away with morning rain
Time slips away with morning rain
Time slips away with morning rain
Time slips away with morning rain
