[Verse 1]

I embrace the darkness within

Forever serve beneath its hand

Horrid thoughts that surface to me

Ceremony bloods command

I will live through this forever

I have done the things you grieve

As you kneel before its evil

Death is here deep inside you


[Chorus 1]

Skinned alive, now naked

Terrorized, no humanity

Seek salvation from an MIA god

Empty vessels chanting for your death


[Verse 2]

Walk the streets beneath the shadows

Searching for a cryptic bride

Eat alive the conscience I hate

Without pain, I watch you die

I will live through this forever

I have done the things you grieve

As you kneel before its evil

My face is the last you'll see


[Pre-Chorus 1]

Soaked in blood, the mask you wear

Haunting cries, the dead scream for me

Staring eyes invoke no guilt

I can taste your mind, you're lifeless


[Chorus 2]

Face the dead and dying

Feel your life drain through your soul

Seek salvation from an MIA god

Empty vessels chanting for the dead


[Lead - King]


[Pre-Chorus 2]

Death is yours, your veins have dried

Staring eyes of glass, now empty

Still, you speak with lips so cold

In my head, I hear you cry


[Chorus 3]

God is dead, can't save me

Taking lives with impunity

Resurrection of a deviant Christ

Feeding hate to capacity—deviance
