Messiah Complex II: a Glutton for Punishment

ii) A Glutton For Punishment Greed and guile Colour my life with aurus rose Temper my yearning Abdicate the throne, majesty! Gold topples the crown Blood festers the ground Hell on earth My blessing and my curse How did I fail my holy grail Taper my hunger With your compound eyes Parasites leeched upon the guilt And a call to arms Paradise led me down a path to the core Fail. Try. Fall. Rise Scars run deep, Tormenting me with her reptilian glare How is she forsaking me when my devil may care? With your compound eyes Parasites echo through the walls And a call to arms Paradise, breathe me in, I'm dead to the world
