These shadows fill my dreams
To nightmarish extremes
Giving birth to my death upon calling
Then on wings I arise
In a fiery disguise
Spitting hate at my corpse below crawling

Of horror I am born
In cold flesh I am sworn
Screaming laughter in verses of terror
With eyes that bleed tears
Of depression and fears
Despising the breath of God's error

Punish me wholly for the sins I have known
Pummel my soul with a quarry of stone
Bleed me with blades that shear hope from the bone...

...and bury my heart with demons
