Lyrics Flesh and the Power It Holds - Obscura

Flesh and the Power It Holds

Open the gates
Look into a distant future
No more pain
Open the gates
To redemption’s purgatory
What’s to gain?
I was born — into a world of corruption and sin
A living hell — the life that I lead
I was raised by the spawns of hypocrisy
The world came down — with decadence
Open the gates
Ripping through society’s suture
Evermore
Open the gates
Breaking through the ossuary
All so sore
Pain — only way to hold me back
What is — going to put me down?
You- worthless scum on planet earth
I — can’t bear it anymore
Open the gates
Look into a distant future
No more pain
Open the gates
To redemption’s purgatory
What’s to gain?
I was born — into a world of corruption and sin
Pain- only way to shut my mouth
This- won’t put me down forever
I was raised by the spawns of hypocrisy
The — lowest forms on planet earth
Scum- is the word they represent
Open the gates
Skeletal and long forgotten
Opens wide
Open the gates
Awaiting annihilation
Doom is near
