Leather Crown

(album: Desolation Sounds - 2015)

Prayer wheels keep spinning and pagan blood returns
Haunted by visions of crawling death the invisible worm
With a look so gone and a mask so spectral
We both know what's behind the green door of a life that's spent so reckless

Goddamn the day I was born
I've been patient for too long
Goddamn it all, goddamn it all
Goddamn the day I was born
I've been patient for too long now

Dreams of the pentagram while I'm inside her
Leather crown upon her head unforgettable and frightening
A symbol of well being drawn on to her skin
Held my spirit in her hands. I should have seen the omen

Goddamn the day I was born
I've been patient for too long
Goddamn it all, goddamn it all
Goddamn the day I was born
I've been patient for too long now

The widening circles of her desire seeking out new flesh
Cut off from her nirvana a vision of regret
Only sinking deeper into waters of lust
Sold into captivity with no one left to trust

Goddamn the day I was born
I've been patient for too long
Goddamn it all, goddamn it all
Goddamn the day I was born
Goddamn it all, goddamn it all
