[Verse 1]

Split my skin, fuck my wounds

Desecrate the Inner Sanctum in which I hide

Drag me through the mud, blind my whitening eyes

That I may see darkness in the tunnels ov light


[Pre-Chorus]

Pain I cannot deny (As I rot in this empty shell)

Swamped in disaffection (Introducing to my newborn hell)


[Chorus]

Be it not so!

Thou shall see me not in agony

Failure was and is no option

'Tis my undying self

The ever wandering son ov the morn

Abandoned, yet never to be conquered


[Verse 2]

I never mourn, I never look back as long as Thy phosphoric rays

Grant me more pleasure than pain

I, who is evil can receive no good

Though I still crave, I'm yearning for

Thy healing touch ov grace...


[Pre-Chorus]

Pain is timeless (When I question the laws ov god)

Drowned in everlasting confusion (Caress my hate against the mob)


[Chorus]

Be it not so!

Thou shall see me not in agony

Failure was and is no option

'Tis my undying self

The ever wandering son ov the morn

Abandoned, yet never to be conquered

The opponent!

My life's work is complete...
