Soon I will become the destroyer of the world
My villainous heart told me so,
every direction claimed the words!
"A stranger once told me I'm a violent man."
I said "you ain't seen nothing yet."
In the depths of our palms the relic shown ash black.
Ravenous, as our blind hearts succumbed.
An angry gormandizer whispers rancorous thoughts to my soul.
I can only delay the beast for so long.
White eyes show red thoughts as our blood thirst began in our dreams.
I'll scar your mind with visions of bloodshed.
Secrets like swords, plated under the skin,
our iron is about to be revealed.
I've fallen so far, I won't be coming back again.
I won't be coming back my love.
And the only regret I have is not telling you how my heart is broken from weeks without your glowing embrace.
But now my heart will slowly wash away with the tide of the sea.
Eclipsed and losing hope, this is my last letter home,
and I pray it will someday reach you, and does not crumble upon the rocks.
The sea will take us all.

Sinners Will Fall
05:33

There's death around your neck.
Seeping into these sheets.
Crawling up and down your spine.
The signal of deceased, and we're all dead.
This serpent calls out names.
Written on a bloody sheet.
You're all sinners, you're all just sinners to me.
I'll cleanse this home.
Catalytic, a demon ripping seams.
I'll take my time with this one.
Willing me.
Don't spare the son.
Apathetic, you'll never see the means.
I took the life of this one.
Spilling me.
I'm afraid I've won.
Eight heads will roll.
Let's take the weight from your shoulders, begging no, no please.
It's just like slaughtering animals, it's easy, you hit 'em in the head.
I have no forgiveness.
Save the little ones for last.
A broken angel.
We all fall down.
Catalytic, a demon ripping seams.
I'll take my time with this one.
Willing me.
Don't spare the son.
Apathetic, you'll never see the means.
I took the life of this one.
Spilling me.
I'm afraid I've won.
You're Satan's gun.
Come with me, and I will show you.
Just how cold of a killer I can be.
Without a cry.
No scream for mercy.
I will show you the killer in me.
You'd see me if I meant something to you.
I'm the devil in disguise.

Oh lord, my dreams swim in darkness.
What have I stumbled into this time?
Barricade the door, they're flooding the gates.
"I will draw my sword and my hand will destroy them."
Sky you've been great, but it's time to no longer be a simple decoration.
You've lost yourself in a whirlwind of deceit, and there's no way in hell I will ever take you back.
No, not tonight.
We're fighting for our lives.
King of the dead, king of the dying.
I'll find you out there somewhere.
Beyond this life you'll be mine once again.
Tongue like a snake, you're breaking down the walls.
Who will save us now?!
This house is a coffin, as it burns to the ground.
My enemy, he's going to burn this town.
Why will you not wake up?!, she screams.
The whole world is falling, falling away from her.
I'll spill my heart for you, until there's nothing left to give.
The whole world is falling, and it's taking her with it.
