lyrics

From the ashes I arise
and from the splintered stems of the earth
I return
With knowledge through struggle
Triumphant through suffering
The hierarchy of hypocrites and harlots
Feeding the starving their lies
Forever holding onto nothing
Desires and dreams of the heart
An empty well to thy idol
A fountain of opportunity for thy enemy

Up on the cross
I had the most euphoric illusions of grandeur
Visions one cannot express
through pathetic systems of language
Witness a splinter as it festers into a terminal wound

Oh Rise!
Thou that cursed me
as lightning fell from heavens
let the children believe
Thy destroyer of nations!
When rotten is the fruit of thy seed
Recruiting the weak
to indoctrinate the congregation of sheep
Is this thy divine justice?
O, compassionate one?
The pages of disillusion
Corrupt the foundations of humanity

Up on the cross
I had the most euphoric illusions of grandeur
Visions one cannot express
through pathetic systems of language
For I see through humanity
the blood outweighs the soil
Witness a splinter as it festers into a terminal wound

The insects swarm to feed on the carcass of their God

Discarded shrines littered with bones
The alter collapsed
The pews empty
Paint the picture
Alone
My greatest sin is echoed in the mirror
Hung on the walls
In-between my fingers
Locked behind the flesh
bone and blood
yet radiating out with a silent aura
The deceit is blasphemy
when the pride of thy holiness
is rape and treachery
such is thy legacy.
