lyrics

I will drown the world in your mother's tears
Living in the wake of your mistakes and the sum of all your fears.

Pull tight the belt and remember
how it felt
When my fang first pierced your vein.
You watched as your blood mixed with mine,
And with that blood, you signed your name.

Chasing and craving the way I make you feel.
This numbing tranquility, concealing wounds that never heal.
Perceiving life through a blurred lens once clear,
Surveying the path that led you here.

Once a shadow in the night, a skeleton in the closet, now a demon in sight.



Find your solace within me
As your blood boils so peacefully
So you think you can get away?
I'm in your mind, your blood, and I'm in your veins.
Temptation looms as your will is breaking
Double the dose just to keep from shaking


Sharpened eyes now dull to the pain as we danced through the night with exaltation in my veins.

Vile abomination: my bane.

Chasing and craving the way I make you feel.
This numbing tranquility, concealing wounds that never heal.


Burning, I wait for every moment that you feel alone.
Boiling your skin and spreading ice within your bones.


Tell me now, does flirting with death make you feel more alive?

Does hanging off the edge make you reconsider why you try to survive?


As veins of regret catch the shallow gaze of curious eyes, the apathetic prophets profit from their demise.

I claim dominion over thee

Come take your place knelt at my feet
Enslaved to me you'll always be

Your sacrifice will be in vain,
for not one soul that I have slain
has died with honor or retained
its dignity. Your soul is stained.

Find your solace within me
As your blood boils so peacefully
So you think you can get away?
I'm in your mind, your blood, and I'm in your veins.
Temptation looms as your will is breaking
Double the dose, I am your undertaking.
