Lyrics Towers Upon Towers - 1349

Towers Upon Towers

Behind flickering contorted faces
Phantom claws move hidden hands
On pathways of least resistance
Worn to bone by rats and sainted lies
As words of filth hails heaven high
Hossanas choke on children’s skin
Towers upon towers
Masks behind masks
Filth upon filth
Rib upon ash
Towers upon towers
Scraping the skies
Bone upon bone
Lie upon lie
Limbs upon limbs
Soul upon soul
Sin upon sin
Lie upon lie
Towers upon towers
Masks behind masks
Filth upon filth
Rib upon ash
Towers upon towers
Scraping the skies
Bone upon bone
Lie upon lie
Limbs upon limbs
Soul upon soul
Sin upon sin
Lie upon lie
Sanctimonious vultures' necrotic dance
Like hungry wolves upon altars of flesh
You shall eat the offspring of your own stinking bodies
Visiting your father’s sins upon own butchered lambs
The lingering stench of grotesque parody ever present
Ember by crumbling ember, last dying fire, fading slow
Creeping into feeble mind like lice
Searing veins like sweetest poison
Now cut the skin and eat my flesh
Towers upon towers
Masks behind masks
Filth upon filth
Rib upon ash
Towers upon towers
Scraping the skies
Bone upon bone
Lie upon lie
Towers upon towers
Masks behind masks
Filth upon filth
Rib upon ash
Towers upon towers
Scraping the skies
Bone upon bone
Lie upon lie
