lyrics
Sweat slicks my skin, the complex hymn repeats
The air we breathe is pulsing thick with ancient heartbeats
Forms unseen for aeons twist in the black
I covet the mysteries clenched tightly in their grasp
The last words ringing out, my followers wordless with fear
Not even I can comprehend our god, but feel its presence drawing near
A thousand eyes open above, to peer into my mind
Slit throats gurgling obscenities, corrupt desires of the divine
Do these offerings entice you, quivering flesh for you to rend?
Blindly, they trusted you, single file to their end
Tendrils spring up from the earth to grip us firm
Crushing my chest, our Lord’s intent I now discern
I was not loved, I was but used to bring it forth
Tricked just like the rest to molder under the earth
Did these offerings entice you, quivering flesh for you to rend?
Blindly, I trusted you, single file to my end
