Murder-suicide drags the day low
Conscience contorted, invokes the butcher, blow by blow
Brought to its knees amidst the venom of its peers
Gestation: genocide, their trophy was its tears

Martyria, liars in wait
The last hurrah is nigh, the trigger sounds its fate
Dementia, Siren of hell
Scream the screams of abolition, hammer strike the knell

Scheming corpse, hollow skull, void emotion, dead and null
Last fires of innocence eclipsed within its obfuscated depths
It's not abject to stalk you wraithlike in the dark
It's not averse to stab your throat and drink your death

Wraithlike in the dark

Castigation
Codependency
Chastened 'til I bleed
Hope abandons me
Persecution
Cut out the disease
Null compassion
God abandons me

Martyrium
Conjure me down
Swallow me low

Brought to its knees amidst the venom of its peers
Gestation: genocide, their token was its tears

Martyrium, lying in wait
Last kiss goodnight before it chokes you out with hate
Delirium, Scion of hell
Breach the gates of absolution, silence as it fell

Silence as it fell
Darkness as it fell
