crown of worms

i am the author

dream up your pain

drink as did bacchus

rebel just like cain

lord of the city

i shall remain

all pandemonium

i shall reign

sit in my fortress

up on my hill

drinking the wine

'til i've had my fill

building up high

my castle walls

oh

to veil my splendid fall

i present you

i present to you

i present you this crown of worms

surrounding myself with mysery

drawn curtains heavy of my history

exquisite i am

perfect unity

on my left hand is false majesty

i feign affection

efute the true story

dispute with creation

the lie is my glory

i care for no one

my gospel is death

for me the light's gone

only darkness is left

i present you

i present to you

i present you this crown of worms

as black in deed

as cold as stone

a commandment of one

as proud as gold

as neglected in spirit

as time is old

as legion is numbers

as legend is told

i am alone

with the agony of truth

my power of will

my judgement and chain

my end is knowledge and conscience of guilt

my final confusion hidden from me till i'm done
