Wrath

(album: Pain Remains - 2022)

Behold displacement, cremation
Rising from devastation
From embers of creation unto death
All shall return

Stoking fires and guiding flames
Burn like candles from both ends
Choke on ashes and be cleansed
All you are is all you've ever been

Bathe in baptismal fire
Coat the world in my disease
Remorseless, drenched in ire
I'll flood the world in kerosene

There's no sin
Now I am one within me
There's no pain
It ends the same

I've fallen like the cursed angel
Beginnings ignite the sky
Fall now like ash before me
Devoured by the sea
Fill the hole in my chest I have manifested
Behold the new king

'Gain and again I will pretend I can feel the flame
'Gain and again I will attempt to hide this pain

Guide the flames into the jaws of the beast
We are not one in the same

Atop the crimson pyre
Smoldering and ashen wings
Flay me of my desire
I feel nothing

'Gain and again I will pretend I can feel the flame
'Gain and again I will attempt to hide

All shall return to ash
Collapsing the stars
Watching the earth collide unsated
Drown in the fires of my intent
I'm smoldering
Drowning in shame
I am falling down
Into the flame
It's all I know
Heavy lies the crown of the king
