shadow of myself

this sickness i'm afflicted with

has got my brain decaying

addicted to its wickedness

this dangerous game i'm playing

i know my god has damned me

my fate remains unmolded

guess it runs in the family

my sense of self corroded

rage and hatred

untethered

heads and appendages severed

i can't be saved by confession

endure this torture forever

this aimless anger will fester

and pain will make me remember

i'm on the edge of life and death

and i ain't gettin' better

lungs filled up with sweat and mud

unclean

diseased

body wet with blood

when it comes to carnage i can't get enough

ever since mom and dad force fed me some

way past saving

can't be helped

just a shadow of myself

feel your darkness cascade over me

make me evil

feed me hell

i'm a shadow of myself

swallow my soul

take control of me

hold your holy bibles tight

you're sinking in this swamp

there's no key to your survival

that's a door that's locked

dissected head to toe

you'll be opened up

the only friend you'll get to know is a loaded gun

my blackened blood is boilin'

i feel my fear no more

the scent of dead flesh spoilin'

have i become a corpse?

spiders climb up my spine

feel their venom in my veins

this torment is divine

the reaper i'll embrace

when i'm made a god

i will take a bow

evil forged a bond

she won't break her vows

now you know the price

gotta pay it now

if you have a life

time to lay it down

heed not the voice of reason

it only tells you lies

obey your sins and demons

then see through evil's eyes

way past saving

can't be helped

just a shadow of myself

feel your darkness cascade over me

make me evil

feed me hell

i'm a shadow of myself

swallow my soul

take control of me

blood is in the air

my tongue can taste the gore

smell it on my breath

the flavor i've been craving for

what's the matter

what's happenin'?

i've been served up a platter of pathogens

trapped within a macabre massacre

by a family of sadistic savages

ain't seen a chainsaw yet

but i will by the end

i'll bet

i can sense the presence of evil

settled deep in this residence

i've already been through shit

and still haven't seen how bad it gets

crashin' their party

bash in their heads

pick up a weapon and splatter the rest

this violence has me laughin'

after makin' a massive mess

i guess i'm past the point of saving

i'd rather end up dead

give in to your temptation

transcend mortality

why let yourself be bound by

mortal morality

way past saving

can't be helped

just a shadow of myself

feel your darkness cascade over me

make me evil

feed me hell

i'm a shadow of myself

swallow my soul

take control of me
