Your obsession will swallow you whole

The chill of death clings heavy

And the stench of blood still strong

Can the gnawing of guilt of your blunder

Drive you to face the devil you spawned?

His pallid skin hangs loosely, with a chaos in his wake

A harbringer of sorrow, fear, of pestilence and plague

So whether you will survive, will be for you to decide

Can you break the cycle of madness festering

Deep inside of your mind?

You can read the scrolls and consult the tomes

That the ancient ones laid down

And you may find a way to sever the bond

Or you may find the solution's only total

Self annihilation

This will cause your name to mean traitor

And the accusation rings true

You see, you blindly lusted for power

And then you gave the devil his due

The circle drawn, the blood released

That ritual performed

And then the awe replaced by horror

As you beheld the terrible form

So when the smoke begins to rise

O'er ashes of your kind

It's only then you'll know the cost

Reach inside, expose it all to the light

This task won't fulfill you, it might even kill you

But the choosing is easy if you don't have a choice

It's time, to kneel to the floor

And savor that last sweet breath

As you're sharpening the blade

You will use to extinguish the inferno made flesh

All it took was a drop of your blood

And it was summoned from the fiery plane

But you know the incantation weakens over time, you only have

Yourself to blame

To send it back from whence it came

You will bleed yourself until you're barely clinging onto life

Not enough, you're gonna need another pint

So draw your sigil, thumb the blade now meant for you

In your heart you've always known what you must do

Raise that knife above your head and drive it down

So twist the knife into my side

It's through that pain I feel alive

I want the world to know I threw it all away

He to the world appeared to die

But in his heart he felt divine

He wants the world to know

To heed to the call

So twist the knife into my side

It's through that pain I feel alive

I want the world to know I threw it all away

He to the world appeared to die

But in his heart he felt divine

He wants the world to know

To heed to the call

You feel the fear consume you cold as ice

A wretched token of your sacriface

Bind your souls and cast them down to save your kind

Before you find

Why should I cast my soul away for a world that never cared for me?
