Lyrics

I am alive, I have survived
In all the wicked hearts of mankind I have thrived
I am your greed, I fill your need
I soothe the savage masses poisoning their seed
Can’t stop me now, you don’t know how
The many faces of my sins I shall endow
You can’t resist the serpent’s kiss
Your will is not your own when trapped in my abyss

Oh lord in Heaven, we know not what we’ve done
Have we forsaken your one and only son?
Can’t slow the hours, our time is running out
The flames devour, oh father don’t make us

Bow – never had a chance, captured in my trance
Take my hand and dance on your damnation
Fall – bodies hit the wall, starving you shall crawl
To your master led into temptation

I am the day, I am the night
I am the bird by which your sinful dreams take flight
Can’t look away, I’m here to stay
No matter where you run I’m always in your way
Farewell to you and all you knew
The realm of sanity will quickly come unglued
So all alone, your bitter groan
I’ll immolate you ‘til there’s nothing left but bones

Oh lord in Heaven, we know not what we’ve done
Have we forsaken your one and only son?
Can’t slow the hours, our time is running out
The flames devour, oh father don’t make us

Bow – never had a chance, captured in my trance
Take my hand and dance on your damnation
Fall – bodies hit the wall, starving you shall crawl
To your master led into temptation

Yes, I will conquer you and everything you know and everything you do
I am a demon deep inside you’re hot enough so open wide
Employ me, enjoy me, you’ll never ever destroy me
You are my victim can’t you see? So lose yourself in ecstasy

Your hot and heavy breath will fill the air like sudden death
But wait, you’re choking still… those fantasies are unfulfilled
All family and legacy tossed to the winds of agony
So suffer your chosen fate and rot within your greed and hate

Forty days and forthy nights, the wilderness, your sacrifice
But I will bend and break your will and leave you starving for a kill
Temptation, elation, your certain degradation
You keep me living everyday so we are partners all the way

Oh lord in Heaven, we know not what we’ve done
Have we forsaken your one and only son?
Can’t slow the hours, our time is running out
The flames devour, oh father don’t make us

Bow – never had a chance, captured in my trance
Take my hand and dance on your damnation
Fall – bodies hit the wall, starving you shall crawl
To your master led into temptation
