An angel from hell
With wings white as china
Chew me up
Extinguish my fire
In a winters mist
Surrounded by tall grass hiss
Slowly sinking into the prairie
With a masked trace
Crawling to the shore
Whats written now's worn
With the tide back and forth
Kneel down for the lord
I'm pleading out
I'm pleading out
Come cleanse me now
Please cleanse me now
My arm is a constellation
Unseen by coiled faces
Speaking in tongues
Heavy with soiled blood
Silence rings through these walls
Guiding me through blackened halls
To the room with a familiar fire
Lit by my desire
Crawling to the shore
Whats written now's worn
With the tide back and forth
Kneel down for the lord
I'm pleading out
I'm pleading out
Come cleanse me now
Please cleanse me now
Now
Now
Now
Now

Sextons Call
04:56
|

They ride out at night
All dressed in black
You can see it in the air
Your fellow mans shrieks of fear
When they hear the sextons call
They scream their chants and slam their doors
Here they come
Oh, here they come
So close your eyes and hold thy tongue
For whom the bell tolls
Is yet to come
With each thunder clap you can hear deaths gallop
Getting ever near with each shed tear
Disguised in smoke they're veiled, they’re cloaked
Hidden in the cracks of your walls
Now look what's at your door
Knock by knock
Knock by knock
Knock by knock
Knock by knock
Oh, pray for us

Mourn
06:41
|
|||
This hangs above me
Like a guillotine blade and its falling grace
An execution to be my retribution
The final act for your amusement
To be forgotten by my peers
Better off for coming years
Will you mourn
Leave a rose brimmed with thorns
Or will you scorn
Spit at my words, kick my dirt
A metallic taste that haunts of rejection
Two faces with no affection
Whispers of the willows gales
A myth of a singing mirage, pale
Will you mourn
Leave a rose brimmed with thorns
Or will you scorn
Spit at my words, kick my dirt
Spit at my
Kick at my
Spit at my

Roll the dice
Live by night
Roll the dice
Live by night
Snake eyes
Snake eyes
Raise the stakes
Pay the price
Take a life
Live in blight
Take a life
Live in blight
No not I
No not I
The game is mine
The game is mine
The game is mine
The game is mine
Samedi come find me
Samedi come find me
Samedi come find me
Samedi unbind me
It was his or mine
You huntsman of wrights
An eye for an eye
You hustler of sights
Now I’m roaming the interzone
Back to the crossroads
Where I was reborn
Hollowed eyed
Adrift through your smoke
