A secret blind spot, so numb and callous, careless and cold
So far beyond all empathy
Worthless appendix of incarnation
Yet the gateway to poison questing minds
Casting upon you, the spell of segregation
Tear all love from you, in total desolation
Total incapacitation
Self-knowledge denied and all your dignity defiled
No matter the names they bear
No matter the saints they fear
Lying prophets, fallen hollows, untruth revelators
Your fear of hell will drag you into a godless abyss
There is no way to cure the human race
Forever abandoned to disgrace
Waiting for you to surrender at last
Suffocating in religious haze
Implanted image of a prudent god, so wise and gracious
So far above the plagues you fear
Self-knowledge denied and all your dignity defiled
No matter the names they bear
No matter the saints they fear
Lying prophets, fallen hollows, untruth revelators
Your fear of hell will drag you into a godless abyss
Fear of hell, prey to god, self-chosen hell, prey to god
Self-knowledge denied and all your dignity defiled
Momentary gods abhorred
But ancient demons adored
There is a void within the soul of every man A secret blind spot, so numb and callous, careless and cold So far beyond all empathy Worthless appendix of incarnation Yet the gateway to poison questing minds Casting upon you, the spell of segregation Tear all love from you, in total desolation Total incapacitation Self-knowledge denied and all your dignity defiled No matter the names they bear No matter the saints they fear Lying prophets, fallen hollows, untruth revelators Your fear of hell will drag you into a godless abyss There is no way to cure the human race Forever abandoned to disgrace Waiting for you to surrender at last Suffocating in religious haze Implanted image of a prudent god, so wise and gracious So far above the plagues you fear Self-knowledge denied and all your dignity defiled No matter the names they bear No matter the saints they fear Lying prophets, fallen hollows, untruth revelators Your fear of hell will drag you into a godless abyss Fear of hell, prey to god, self-chosen hell, prey to god Self-knowledge denied and all your dignity defiled Momentary gods abhorred But ancient demons adored Explain Request ×
