underneath thickening layers of dermis
my lack of veins
my sense of self-worth
eroding at the threshold
a catalyst to personal freedom
personal incarceration
what is left of the "physical" is beyond me
searching for peace with spoon and flame
to where i can't tell euphoria from madness
blackness rises into flame
engulfed by an infernal realization
of where i am
my eternity, my damnation
rejoice, paradise is lost
thou art dead, nothing of worth
and your home is here, forevermore
until the end of the last day
mumble for forgiveness
as the heat sears the tongue
bless this sacrifice unto us
in this, his darkest hour
they lap at me with tongues
scorching skin
melting bone to the marrow
for who i was
for that i am no more
the hour of judgement has surpassed me
and i lie in ruin
with his infernal majesty

never been a big death metal fan but this is actually super accessible for the genre, has fun concepts, and personally i'm always a fan of albums with short tracklists and huge runtimes (for individual songs) Great time, good jumping on point for newbies too. alienasu
