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 |
