lyrics

What have I done?

12 martyrs
Dried, skinned, and propped up
Each refusing to speak.

Answer me.
Can't you see how grief
has drained the color from my flesh?


I swear i am no longer the heartless traitor
Who had poisoned you all.


My vile acts were necessities to preserve
My offerings.


Chorus:
Why can't I forget
Their screams?
Creeping
Reaping
Forevermore.

Each victim
Must be kept hidden
From the vermin outside.

I hear them
Gnawing their way in
Craving my rotting friends.



Out of any possible outlet for my rage
Why did i have to kill
The ones who were always standing right by my side
Without condition?

Chorus:
Why can't I forget
their screams?
Creeping
Reaping
Forever they ring.

Lethal habits
Return
Breaking
Aching
Destroying me

Bleed
For the diety

Burn
These thoughts out of me



This ritual is the
Only way i can be saved

From the entrapment entrapment
between neurosis and disgrace.

I've murdered without any cause
And i know that it's all my fault
I'm not asking to be forgiven.
Just let me forget.


Instructions from scripture nearly complete.
Death, give me your hand.
The planets have aligned
Now I become your 13th sacrifice.

Chorus:
