This is a reckoning
A clichéd cut of lying tongue
Revenge never goes out of style
Gorilla honing trigger-finger
That makes gorilla man
Ingrained, there's hate within us all
Spiraling I've lost my footing once again
I'm flailing in a tantrum of disgust
When life holds nothing sacred
When the loveless turn to loathe
We'll witness this final threatened pose
(Oh!) Oh, Mother War!
Sleep in your arms tonight, I'm burning
I'm burning for your love
(This) This juggernaut of bronze and alcohol
Machines of vengeance now are born
In vengeance we are born
To our graves these grudges shall be sworn
The alter(?) death of emotion never mourned
We'll die before we crawl
Twisted ministers of death
Praying for a bullet hail
Gorilla, suffocate!
Gorilla, maim!
An education in...
Howling!
Ministers of death
We'll be praying,
Praying for this bullet hail
Gorilla, suffocate!
Gorilla, maim!
An education in complete misanthropy
[solo]
(Oh!) Oh, Mother War!
Sleep in your arms tonight, I'm burning
I'm burning for your love
(This) This juggernaut of bronze and alcohol
Machines of vengeance now are born
(Oh!) Oh, Mother War!
Sleep in your arms tonight, I'm burning
I'm burning!
In vengeance we are born
To our fucking graves
The greatest tribe(?) forever,
Forever!
Eyes of perfect ivory
Match the sweetest lengths of your neck
I'm but a stain to such holy fabrics
Darwin's proposal
Bouncing back from colored glass
Serpents will guide me to your hull
Slithering between the pews of pearl
I'll walk a path of purity and temporary grace
Whatever it may take to eat and drink of you till slaked
To run a gloveless finger up
Curvaceous trembling leg
We mustn't wait
The fruits of tragedy we'll taste
I'll be Adam, you'll be Eve
We'll fuck and so create
I'm being strangled by his statue
If only his cold eyes could weep
For these things that shouldn't be
Father, I've been sinning
I've pulled a fast one
The perfect sleight of fate
Goddamn, girl
Like an hourglass I'll invert you
The Higher powers shuddering
At what you have become
The laws of science abandoned
Thrust into purgatory
Mary, you've never looked so tender
I will you statues here
To take a breath of life and look upon
Her virgin skin raised in anticipation
The dark has won
My darkness has won again
[solo]
What is truth?
I cannot yet discern
Kneeling in hope of reprimand
This Father's love shall not within me flow
I've fallen to my knees in hollow prayer
How original a sin!
We'll fuck and so create
And burn this planet in our wake
I'm being strangled by his statue
If only his cold eyes could weep
For these things that shouldn't be
Father, I've been sinning
I've pulled a fast one
The perfect sleight of fate
Goddamn, girl
Like an hourglass I'll invert you
The only heaven I will know
Is heaving 'neath the buttons of your blouse
We'll be immortal
A most blessed union of lust
The flames of Hell shall lick our coattails
As we feast of infinity's bust
We of blood frozen
So thick it cannot thaw
Joints lubricated
By sweet alcohol
Liver dissolving
Eyelids but heavy sheets
Ignorant bliss and
The bloodshot secrets it will keep
Pills if you wouldn't mind
Clouds of vapor to stretch out the miles
Hung over we'll greet a certain death
With flash of chipped tooth smile
Each cities secrets buried beneath
In this campaign of vice
Drinking song's a reprise
A slow blur existence
Wading knee deep in sin
Clutch at the ulcer
Acknowledge the frailty within
At dawn we begin again
You who have never seen your breath
Only you're alive
When the mitten clenches in a fist
I'll kiss this fucking world goodnight
Destroyer, my only keeper
I kneel unto your amber gates
Pray you'll kill the ugliness
That sleep won't take away
Free drinks
They shall not kill us
They only warm our fucking bones
But late at night
I can't forget your laugh
And everything I used to know
But I've never seen so many faces
And I've never felt this all alone
Well, I guess this is what I've always wanted
A four-wheeled coffin to call home
I will not ask another name
Disappearing faster than they came
Are you having fun?
Are you entertained?
Another heart-shaped bruise
Another friend back home I'll lose
Am I missing something?
What is left to prove?
Another heated first name fuck
Another stroke of dead man's luck
Another year I can't replace
Another tear sent down her face
At dawn we begin again
Tune of death shall bring an end
You who have never seen your breath
Only you're alive
When this mitten clenches in a fist
I'll kiss this fucking hell goodnight
Destroyer, my only keeper
I kneel unto your amber gates
Pray you'll kill the ugliness
That sleep won't take away
Terror is thy name!
Burning thine bridge
And death the same
A year to drain my innocence
And course it through your blackened veins
Oh, Demoness! (Oh, Demoness!)
What has our daughter become?
Trash for the maggots to eat?
What color eyes should be staring at me in my dreams?
Abomination born in this union of hate
(Killed in the name of the free)
And of our son?
To the sickle he clung
A featureless face for your nightmarish dreams
Dilate - extract
Dilate - and bury it all
Mother, vampiric mistress or night-fed blood
Who pets her child's head from a grave
(Demon!) Enchantress of evil profound
Dead and nameless, dead
(A noose to choke the memories from me)
Addicted to those forbidden hands
Thrust deep inside her helpless hull
[solo]
(SCRAPE!) Scrape it all away
Vacuum these pictures from my brain
Scrape it all away
How I shall laugh once you have died!
How I will sleep once you've been destroyed!
(Destroyed, destroyed, destroyed, destroyed)
Dilate - extract
Dilate - and bury it dead
Mother, vampiric mistress or night-fed blood
Who pets her child's head from a grave
(Demon!) Enchantress of evil profound
Dead and nameless, dead
(A noose to choke the memories from me)
In between we insidious vapors shalt teem
Looming so loathsome
And it seems to me like I'm dead inside
A bloated corpse propped out of tradition
I can never recall
What it was I had ever to strive for?
As a youth, was it just to exist autonomously?
No, we don't wanna work
We just wanna fuck, swallow pills, and forget our curses
No, we don't need pigs like you
We follow the laws of our emptying veins
In this world of nothing for me
I'd be sooner destroyed
Vampire youth
Raise your cups to the ne'er-waning moon
Let its visage ring true!
To the hearts cold and blue
We're dying each moment free
We're all animals here
Flesh and blood, bone and dream
We're just impulses here
Just another piece of shit in the storm
Just another piece of shit!
SHIT! [Echoes]
[solo]
From the smelling of things it appears
This shit has come to a boil
Nighttime we shall rule as our own
While this hollow will sleep
We shall bark at the moon
In this world of nothing for me
I'd be sooner destroyed
In this world there is nothing for us
But the sound, but the sound!
Vampire youth
Raise your cups to the ne'er-waning moon
Let its visage ring true!
To the hearts cold and blue
We're dying each moment
We'll never sleep again
We'll be going fucking mad
Sin and Hell is all we will ever know
Just another piece of shit
