Betray the Light

So high, the price of life… Oppression reeking, stench of hate denied mortality, Weeping victims broken cries awash in agony Delight in death for deaths own sake you toil in misery! The corpses heaping high… Deaths gaunt scowl presides Blood consecrates this stand Sanctified, none shall stay my hand! And now it’s time you die You’ve lived for far too long Vengeance swells inside of me The price of life is high Soon to claim its toll Your end will come to pass Drowning in your sobbing children’s blood Your god betrays your faith You’re left behind with your worthless prayers This lie has crippled your mind And leads you to your death so blind I’d bleed to watch you suffer My soul to see you bleed To end your life consumes me To have your throat before me I’d throttle out your life I'll take back what is due me And end you and your kind The price of life is high An eye for an eye! Know that wrath will come Your blood will spill And wash away this pain

What remains when all has gone, When embers fade and twilight dawns When dashed hopes and faded dreams Crowd the soul as silence screams To desperate nights and dismal days To solitude and dark dismay The failed fights and wasted years The bloody paths and trails of tears What remains but death and lies? What’s left for man when dreams have died When sorrow calls and troubles rise When winters ice denies the day When all is dead and swept away When empty void consumes the Soul And vile venom takes it hold When mourning’s veiled shroud descends And suffering life is slow to end? What remains to be? The blind will never see... Spare me from disgrace this shame I cannot face Standing by with blinded eyes led to slaughter, crucified… Denied by all, betrayed in time - wasted dreams, tired lives Children of a barren future, a wasted crop of flesh Fodder for the teeming masses bred of ignorance A sacrifice to long fallen gods, the ancient rite prescribes A right to slaughter, consent to kill, a fucking human bribe My eyes grow sad, my heavy heart longs to beat its last How could it all have come this, How could this come to pass? My weary mind, so crazed by time Locked away to roam Abandoned to the desolation darkness take me home…

I will not be taken I will not be broken Nor will I be blinded By these lies unspoken Elusive truths escape Evil subjugates Knees scarred now unbending No longer the broken dog Dead…Soon to be Dead…Dead to me Too much blood has seeped away And tainted black these days This soul in dark decline will respond in kind Vengeance my redemption, cold heartless perfection Away, flee now in terror from the hell from which you sprang Abandoned to bleed, dead and buried Yet every night it haunts my dreams Memories plead and emptiness breeds The specter swells inside of me I beg to be free, devoid of mercy You feed upon my tortured screams Now you will be dead to me To suffer in the burning blackness

Perdition; pain and might Fallen so far that no wound shall undo me Evil you’ll come to expect One so familiar to depravity’s depths Empty eyes betray the light, abandoning the day Begging to die and dieing to live this world’s a reeking grave Apocalyptic misery misanthropic witchery Vast necropolis of walking dead In the twilight hear the cries of tormented suicides Who’ll die before they’ll suffer to be led Degradation, Mutilation And still in vain they fight Eradication, sure damnation Now falls eternal night Darkness dawning, devils spawning They’re coming for you all! The sirens call soon all shall fall And sorrow reaps its toll… Sorrow reaps its toll… Withering in the frigid light Abandoned to the burning gloom To th fading sun, twilight’s veil Where the dieing come to meet there doom I’ve heard it said the cross has failed Now I understand why this is true I see the blind and their wicked lies And I hope one day to rule them all in hell There’s only darkness here Those who come seeking light Leave only ghosts behind Lost in eternal night Shades haunt the dismal gloom And only demons tread A frozen empty place Of sorrow and cold dread Damnation’s fiery light Guiding the infernal descent Evil you’ll come to respect As you roam the shadow of humanity’s depths
