What You're Scared Of

(album: JT XVIII - 2020)

I've harbored this horrible hunger which ravages
Everything it touches, like hundreds of desperate savages
Ravenous stomachs, nothing but a cavernous black abyss
As this carnivore carousel gathers hazardous pathogens
In the drabbest of passages where cadavers are stacking
If you have entered these catacombs you must sadly be masochistic
'Cause I am the cataclysmic embodiment of an apocalypse
And I'm waiting, salivating, at the mere thought of the taste of your blood on my lips
I might be rhyming but I am tired of reasoning
I'm that demonic evil thing causing people to dream of these
Diabolical sceneries, come and see where I'm keeping these
Bodies, let 'em float, as endless rows of my teeth will sink
Into the meat that you're feeding me with your fear as the seasoning
Even Stephen King couldn't possibly come to conceive a thing
That could equal my need to feast on your petrified flesh
Keep an eye out for deadlights ahead

Addicted to the taste of fear
From the moment that it touched my tongue
And now I smell it when it's near
You never meant to but you brought me some
The table's set, now let me find a wine to pair up
Don't be afraid to share what you're scared of

Why are you skeptical, don't deny this as tenable
Are your eyes not so credible? See these lights are a spectacle
Unconfined to dimensional lines, as I am exceptional
A divine, unpreventable, do you find this digestible?
Though I lie for extensible times I rise with immeasurable
Appetite for your terror, every bite is impeccable
Your fight's commendable, but your fright is delectable
Every effort's in vain, the end of your life's inevitable
Got you floating so high, as my mouth is opening wide
But don't you try to fight it, because you know you will die
I've missed you so although you've grown old and brave
The only thing better than fear is fear that's been aged

Addicted to the taste of fear
From the moment that it touched my tongue
And now I smell it when it's near
You never meant to but you brought me some
The table's set, now let me find a wine to pair up
Don't be afraid to share what you're scared of
