Flesh Born Of Flesh

Headless carriage at the door
It rattles enticing, step this way to me
She's hugging her knees on the floor
Her flesh rebels, peeling
Slithering towards the night
It's spectral wandering hands unwanted
Groping, reaching, all it wants is a touch
To possess
Her fight subsiding, nonchalance grabs her wrist
Raising her hands in the air
Like two torn flags, surrendered
Lay yourself unto me
Summon the energy you need
Kill the malignant fiend
Flesh born of flesh, uncanny and rotten
Mimic invader
Your inaction, too long my passion
Just once for me
Vanquish the malady
My father is an ally of the enemy
Ignoring all the knocking in proximity
Cells eviscerated and duplicated
He cannot see it, now her body's a slave
Remolded by death, cast in it's own image
She's a part-evil shade, who continues to pillage
Fashioning a hollow hive of sorrow from the ribcage
So engage, grab the horns of the blight
And save yourself
God's run away
Left you to your fate
Takes no responsibility for his mistake
Recalled with no fix
Lay yourself unto me
Summon the energy you need
Kill the malignant fiend
Flesh born of flesh, uncanny and rotten
Mimic invader
Your inaction, too long my passion
Just once for me
Vanquish the malady
(Fight Fight Fight Fight)
Shake from the pillory
And strike upon its gaze
Melee artillery
Thrash hard, break free!
Flesh born of flesh, uncanny and rotten
Mimic invader
Your inaction, too long my passion
Just once for me
Vanquish the malady
Vanquish the malady

Traitorous

Your principles
Your principles are a privilege
As you fold your arms and piously pontificate
"Of course, I feel no remorse"
Now I've done my part within this awful discourse, yeah
Your principles
Your principles are a privilege
Your options weren't exactly to your taste
So you abstain without considering
How the voiceless find their voices taken away
Perfidious
Treacherous
Traitorous
Splitting hairs like an atom bomb
An ally until you're gone
an ally until you're gone
Self centred virtuosity, kingmaker in your fantasy
An intellectual, self described,
Sanctimonious as embers bring crimson to the sky
You won, in your head
As we lay where you made our bed
Response unclear
Clean up the mess that you've made
You built a crown for yourself
Perfidious
Treacherous
Traitorous
Splitting hairs like an atom bomb
An ally until you're gone
You won, in your head
As we lay where you made our bed

Pray
With breath
Given to you by machines
A war of attrition with no ammunition
Soldiers desert their post in spite of their lives
Flies crawl on their face, as they claim they're not the deceased
Collateral piling as the flag is raised
The stench of a ghostly congregation
burning their spouses, their young and their kin
Abscent from their own judgement, just flesh on the scale
Their eyes looking up for a God
Come into the light, come into the light, yeah
An abhorrent fright, as no one takes your hand into the void
Pray
With breath
Given to you by machines
Empty space at the table, a suicide prescribed over the phone
Walked into their graves over time, by a furrow-browed news host
Claims he built the world
So gifted with destruction
Claims he stood the columns
As he disregards instruction
The stench of a ghostly congregation
burning their spouses, their young and their kin
Abscent from their own judgement, just flesh on the scale
Their temples become burning jails
They call despite their lungs of lead
The rest by the bed is empty
Their eyes looking up for a God
Faith turns to fate as they fall
So wrong
Host unto the devil, the pestilence anthropomorphised
Spitting bile and volatile, a rebel's sense of pride
Come into the light, come into the light, yeah
An abhorrent fright, as no one takes your hand into the void
Into the void
Hand into the void
Hand into the void
Come into the light, come into the light, yeah
An abhorrent fright, as no one takes your hand into the void
Hand into the void
Hand into the void
You have no choice
