[Verse 1]

Works of art, painted black

Magniloquent, bleeding dark

Monotonous palate, murky spectrum

Grimly unlimited

Food for thought, so prolific

In contrasting shades forcely fed

Abstraction, so choking

So provocative

[Chorus]

A canvas to paint

To degenerate

Dark reflections

Degeneration

A canvas to paint

To denigrate

Dark reflections

Of dark foul light

[Verse 2]

Profound, aesthetic beauty

Or shaded, sensary corruption

Perceptions, shattered

Splintered, mirroring

In deft taints, diluted, tinted

Spelt out, in impaired colour

Denigrating, going to paints the pain

Not a pretty picture

[Chorus]

A canvas to paint

To degenerate

Dark reflections

Degeneration

A canvas to paint

To denigrate

Dark reflections

Of dark foul

[Verse 3]

Works of heart bleeding dark

Black, magniloquent art

Monotonous palate

Murky spectrum

Grimly unlimited

Prolific food for thought

Contrasting, fed with force

Abstraction, so choking

So provocative

[Bridge]

Bleeding works of art

Seething work so dark

Searing words from the heart

[Chorus]

A canvas to paint

To degenerate

Dark reflections

Degeneration

A canvas to paint

To denigrate

Dark reflections

Of dark foul

A canvas to paint

To degenerate

Dark reflections

Degeneration

A canvas to paint

To denigrate

Dark reflections

Of dark foul light
