like a conscious parasite i roam

in sunset's saddening glory

shrouded in agony

a being at a loss

a man and his cause

so maddening

it became his cross

my old mangled soul

prowls its walls

my flesh forlorn

i'm but a ghoul

abiding the cruel

i yearn for redemption

my salvation

i drank from the promise of a life eternal

yet the rotting of my flesh spills into irony

my being is now doomed to witness

the decay of my corpse

still bound to my form

i keep lurking for a new life to come

my old mangled soul

prowls its walls

my flesh forlorn

i'm but a ghoul

abiding the cruel

i yearn for redemption

my salvation

reincarnation

like a conscious parasite i roam

lost

confined by the margins of life

here in german woodland

i wait for innocent blood to arrive
