The Tomb Within

(album: All Tomorrow's Funerals - 2012)

You're dying inside
Every heartbeat closer to the last
Immortality, a fallacy
A perverted pipe dream of the past

The tomb, it needs
It's hunger, an unforgiving force
Your blown mind reels in torture
True doom locked on it's course

Your blood it flows in torment
A testament to weakness
Your death-day clock is ticking
You'll surrender to your creatures

The tomb, it needs
It's hunger, an unforgiving force
Your blown mind reels in torture
True doom locked on it's course

Your graveyard eyes unseeing
Your mind drowns in the crypt
Construction of the perfect beast
Your senses have been stripped

Look over your shoulder
Damnation's waiting there
Your run slows to a crawl
The casket calls to your despair

Abyssal hopelessness
Down on bloody knees
There's madness in your soul
A swarming of disease

Cemetery visions
Eyes peeled red and open
Curled up in a coffin
Mind and soul are broken

The tomb, it needs
It's hunger, an unforgiving force
Your blown mind reels in torture
True doom locked on it's course

Merging with the void
While uncloaked by total doom
Feel the reaper's breath
As you slip inside the tomb

Wake up dead and mourning
With a knife tight in your fist
Thank the blood red skies
For with death you have been kissed
