Misericord |
| Nightmares on a roll |
| The spirit of fear |
| Has alighted here |
| Mercy on your soul… |
| This fright, crepuscular |
| Is muscular with vitriol |
| Misericord |
| I pass by as your shadow |
| The ghostly burning arrow |
| A marksman for your swerving heart |
| Misericord |
| I support your faith |
| When weary, in disgrace |
| You fall to doubt and pull all life apart |
| On this mist-enshrouded pathway |
| And through this hateful tarantella |
| In this thin labyrinth of razors |
| I shall grin, your soul’s propeller |
| Misericord |
| Respite from the grief |
| These spiteful nightfall teeth |
| Grinding minds to tiny pieces |
| Misericord |
| Clockwork works the thief |
| Like an ever-ticking beast |
| Whose biting cogs self-denial greases |
| Drowned in alcohol |
| Sirens of the deep |
| Are demon forces |
| Mercy on your soul… |
| A life lived more monastic |
| Drastic measures must extol |
| On this mist-enshrouded pathway |
| And through this hateful tarantella |
| In this thin labyrinth of razors |
| I shall win, your soul’s propeller |
| Bound to you like bloodline |
| Familiar with the cracks |
| The foul and fetid landscape |
| Just off the beaten tracks |
| Broods treacherous with sinkholes |
| The moon is doused in tar |
| And the fiend disaster preys upon |
| This straight and narrow path |
| Like an ever-ticking beast |
| Whose biting cogs self-denial greases |
| Misericord |
| I free you of the bond |
| To pain, now flee beyond |
| The veil of Death |
| Where peace holds reign |
| Misericord |
| I’m the killing stroke |
| The dagger in your throat |
| Under the armour |
| Calmer with it’s gain |
| Enemies take control |
| The swarming hordes |
| Have stormed the walls |
| Mercy on your soul… |
| Tonight I close your eyes |
| Before the temple falls |
| Before the temple falls |
