Benediction: Killing Music Lyrics

It will start with an invitation, and who would guess the truth?
Nightmare juxtaposition, I'll lead off your child and need no proof
Tiny hands so trusting held in utter evil's thrall
But the innocent is the grey man's now and I'll love her like I loved them all

Consume her as I did them all?

"First I stripped her naked.
How she did bite and scratch..."

Crying supplication and familial appeal
Childish retaliation cannot overcome the beast
You may bite the hand that eats you but you won't survive the meal
And I may not fuck the virgin but she will become my feast

How sweet her little ass will taste?

"I choked her to death.
Then cut her in small pieces so I could take my meat."

The blood thirst overwhelms me

Cruciform fixation, indescribably insane
Deluded aberration, angels must condone these acts
Such brutal flagellation, God must be to blame
Pin cushion perversion, subvert the lightning's wrath

Sane, insane, matters not, regardless the grey man's dead at last

Cry freedom
Misleading through eternity
Mealy mouthed control freak frauds
Bleak relief in ivory

So bleak

Break the mechanism
Set aside the frail untruth
Take control of inborn rights
Pay back ten fold the abuse

Pay Back

They'll strip you down to number and a card
And all cry freedom, all codes be disbarred

In the controlopolis
Checked and balanced, fully unaware

Lucid yet transparent
As clockwork savages
Rats in the mask
Can be just one step away

Gaps in the armour of all oppressive states
Long knives of final liberty
Repress control eradication

Deaths of millions in the three pronged strike
Triple tyrant - paranoid sham
Tithe and tite will wait for no man

Commitment a myth, and live to deceive
Serve self the only law, permit no reprieve

In the controlopolis
Checked and balanced, fully unaware

Lucid yet transparent
As clockwork savages
Rats in the mask
Are always just one step away

You incubate despicable rancorous seed
No thing of beauty this so tortured flesh turned death

Despised gestation, fertile breeding, suffocation
In the darkest place, foetal horror's corruption bleeds

Infect

All the years of pain and death no saviour
Oh hated injustice, paying tithes to death itself

Despised gestation, fertile breeding, suffocation
Would that we had the knife to cut if free

Let the blood run free

And in the mirror before you
Sightless eyes blind to the growing shadow
Consuming?

And as the dead we shall walk

Blackly erubescent, eschatological descent
Words twisted beyond madness in this world of the truest path

Despised gestation, fertile breeding, suffocation
Would that we had the knife to cut if free

Carved into our hearts
We wear the name called death
Will there be a beyond?
Then let it weep in preparation?

A legacy of shining lights to despise the unjust
History will remember the ones among the first into the breach

Once more unto the breach

Subsumed by abomination
Dead ritualistic threnody
this killing music

Destined for great power
Hidden secret of twisted faith
From sacrificial squalor
To disinterring amoral disgrace

Following in the footsteps
In the wrecking trail of the elusive witch
Effigies submerged in gore
With a headless beast for opposing the hitch
Sworn to Kadiempembe
An obsession with evil carved in flesh
Ritually cicatrised screaming
My soul is dead, I have no god

And with the gathered disciples
The chosen one's horizons spread
Immolations and unbelievers
Paying the devil's price in blood and dread

And with the decadent enraptured
Worshipping their twisted god
Boundless evil of El Padrino
A baron in the court of hell

Spiralling sadism
Lovers torn asunder, victims mutilated
Agony praised utmost
One vile commandment - they must die screaming

Flense the silent stoic
Yet his lack of screams fails to impress
Resultant rage volcanic
Seize innocence, desperate redress

But the shadow god has stumbled
Sorcerous facade now implode at once
Though the castellations crumble
The godfather will not be dead for long...
