Negative Penance - Intellectual

No one can clean out the wounds

Deep and weeping

The corpse is staring at me

Wondering eyes

A doctrine carved into the skin of everyone who listens

A sermon that ends in corrosive communion

Suicide comes to mind

Distorting your mind's eye (Distorting your mind's eye)

Is it a vision or a dream? (Dream)

Or maybe a memory (Or maybe a memory)

Of something sinful, manifest?

This is your negative penance (Penance)

A celebration of death (Death)

Drink deep of me

Become one with the filth

The corpse is just as real

And it's proof of your guilt

Take life, hate life

Motherfucker

A corrosive communion

This is your negative penance

A celebration of death

Drink deep of me

Become one with the filth
