With chainsaw in hand
Your death I demand
Slicing through your fat
My awaited gore attack
Manipulating lies
Is your way of life
Riding on cheap glory
Your life is getting gory
Watch you bleed to death
Gasping for last breath
Choking on your blood
I shit onto your guts
Sacrificial cunt
I despise
Sacrificial cunt
No more lies
Slabs of fat
Lay on the ground
Ram an axe
Into your mound
Time to pay the gruesome price

Memories is all that's left behind
As I lay and wait to die
Little do they know
That I hear their choice of life
End it now, it is the only way
Too cruel, that is what they say
Release me from this lonely world
There is no hope - why don't you
Pull the plug
Let me pass away
Pull the plug
Don't wanna live this way
Once I had full control of my life
I now behold a machine decides my fate
End it now it's all too late
What has now been days, it seems like years
To stay like this is what I fear
Life ends so fast, so take your chance

Massacred, hacked to death, my revenge
Slicing deep, into your flesh, the pain intense
Dreams of hate, misery, fill my mind
Puke in your face in disgust, it's time to die
You must die in pain
Mutilation
Staring your severed head in the face
I celebrate a faggot's death, human disgrace
Hanging your mangled corpse for display

Where is the person that could have been
Who, what took over, when did the end begin
Should we not prepare for the uncertain
Mysteries of our life, of our destiny
See things that are not there
Intruding voices
What went wrong to their picture perfect life
They once knew - Flattening of emotions
A mind shared by an uninvited stranger
Which comes and goes as choose to appear
Should we not prepare for the uncertain
Mysteries of our life, of our destiny
See things that are not there
Intruding voices
What went wrong to their picture perfect life

Where is the person that could have been
Who,what took over,when did the end begin
Should we not prepare for the uncertain
Mysteries of our life,of our destiny
See things that are not there
Intruding voices
What went wrong to their picture perfect life
They once knew - Flattering of Emotions
(Solo: Schuldiner)
(Solo: Masvidal)
A mind shared by an uninvited stranger
Which comes and goes as choose to appear
Should we not prepeare for the uncertain
Mysteries of our life,of our destiny
(Repeat 2nd verse)

Time is a thing we must accept
The unexpected I sometimes fear.
Just when I feel there's no excuse for what happens,
Things fall into place
I know there is no way to avoid the pain that we must go through
To find the other half that is true
Destiny is what we all seek
Destiny was waiting for you and me
I believe behind confusion awaits the truth for us
Past the obstacles we face
I value our life and trust
Years of questioning why things happen the way they do in life
Wishing that I could turn back time,

Throughout our time a thought
escapes us to enforce a word, no
holding on to pain it may seem to some
The easy way to say o.k., twist your
knife a little deeper
words to sharp actions dark
hide the blade of the deceiver.
Enforce the words no more, be free
alone you might just find serenity.
To accept another day we choose
to give away another piece of life
to forgive is to suffer
(Solo Schuldiner)
Once or twice is kind
three or four is blind
it is not the end yet a way to begin

(Instrumental)
(Solo: Schuldiner)
(Solo: Masvidal)

I want to watch you drown in your lies.
The end of your masquerade, a matter of time
Intertwining lies, domination, control
Feed his twisted nature
It is sickening to see dreams die
A word of advice, fate's patience is growing short.
Fake down to your mind and appearance
You will fall short of the dreams to destroy
In time you will find yourself trapped in a corner
These four words my friend, I promise you will not forget
I am one of many that see through your lies
Hiding will do you no good, many seek revenge.

I told you once but I will say it again
when you live the flesh it is the beginning
of the end
it will take you in
it will spit you out
behold the flesh and the power it holds
passion is a poison laced with pleasure bitter sweet
one of many faces that hide deep beneath
it will take you in
it will spit you out
behold the flesh and the power it holds
touch, taste, breathe, consumed
deja-vu. already knew from the first encounter
but know I know to let go of words to speak no more
like a wind upon your face you can't see it
but you know it's there, when beauty shows
its ugly face, just be prepared.
(Solo Schuldiner)
Passion burns like fire carried by the wind
the end of a time, a time to begin
it builds you up one way and tears
you right back down, a time to begin
the end of a time.

Faster than a bullet
terrifying scream
enraged and full of anger
he's half man and half machine
Rides the metal monster
breathing smoke and fire
closing in with vengeance soaring high
He is the Painkiller
This is the Painkiller
Planets devastated
Mankind's on its knees
a saviour comes from out the skies
in answer to their pleas
Through boiling clouds of thunder
blasting bolts of steel
evils going under deadly wheels
He is the Painkiller
This is the Painkiller
Faster than a lazer bullet
louder than an atom bomb
Chromium plated boiling metal
Brighter than a thousand suns
Flying high on rapture
stronger free and brave
Nevermore encaptured
They've been brought back from the grave
With mankind ressurrected
Forever to survive
Returns from Armageddon to the skies
He is the Painkiller
This is the Painkiller
Wings of steel Painkiller

Living like us and sharing our day.
In another world very far away
A different existence, yet virtually the same.
Aggression is sadness and laughter is pain
Look deep into their eyes for what they have to say
Emotions take control of life everyday.
Unpredictable variations of behaviour,
Hold the key to the mental door
Where nothing is everything, and everything is nothing
Staring beyond the wall a thousand times over
Seeing a part of them that is real
Just imagine how it might feel
To be denied of what life has to give

Look down at the body
you may see no trace of wounds
but in the eye
the eye of the beholder
one cannot asume.
Not a drop of blood is drawn
but you know how it bleeds
beware of the sharp edged weapon
called human being
It is a shield of passion
and strong will
from this I am the victor
instead of the kill
I will not feed your hunger, instead
I bite the pain
looking not back, but forward
I bite down hard
try to cover up the trail of deceit
and daggers spawned from your soul
(Solo Hamm/Schuldiner)
Acid, the tears of remorse
flow in vain, too late for regrets
save it

You see your vision and no one else's
Your every word filled with sarcasm
Crucify people with invisible knowledge
Verbal destruction with each compulsion
We will see where you go
The future for you is nowhere
Every minute a cliche of your kind
Too much to say from a person with no respect
Your accusations you will regret
From the mentally blind come ideas that are poison
Take away the power, a shallow person you will find.
What would you do without your pathetic narrow-minded approach to
Life, that reflects your lack of abilities
Your opinions are self-destructive
Despair is your gain, delight is corruption
Destined to fall prey to your stories,

The journey begins with curiosity
And envolves into soul-felt questions
On the stones that we walk
And choose to make our path
Sometimes never knowing
Other times knowing too much
Filtering out the bad that holds us back...
Take hold of what is true to your hunger
A hunger that will not go away
Plans for tomorrow, they will remain
Won't you join me on the perennial quest
Reaching into the dark, tetrieving light
Search for answers on the perennial quest
Where dreams are followed, and time is a test
No time for mental crutches
The maker has moved on
I will take it raw and be on my way
Those that stood beside me
I'm glad you understand
Behind these written words
I share the simple plan
To hang on to the way that we feel
From rivers of sorrow
To oceans deep with hope
I have travelled them
Now, there is no turning back
The limit, the sky
I ask my questions: Why? What today?
When tomorrow?
Filtering out the bad that holds us back...
Take hold of what is true to your hunger
A hunger that will not go away

Wherever we go, whatever we do
Your shadow is not far behind our steps
And our breath
Protecting and watching all...
Observing spirits on the wall
What are they telling you?
Following all instincts that are pure
Oblivious to time that may be the cure
Sacred is the gift
That they have without knowing
Serenity is knowing it's safe
From destruction of time
Maybe we could take a step back
And discover what leads us to attack
Time that is short - distance unknown
For them, each day life has just begun
Observing spirits on the wall
What are they telling you?
Following all instincts that are pure

In the dark of night...
Abusing a portion of light
While others are sleeping
And some are escaping
A serpent spews out fantasy
Unjustified blasphemy
That cannot be condoned
It must be strange to not have lived
So far into existence
This is not a test of power
This is not a game to be lost or won
Let justice be done
There will be zero tolerance
For the creator of hallowed intentions
There will be zero tolerance
Fate is your deciding God
Karma comes crashing down
Leaving a very deep scar
Exposing a door to the
Source of a verbal whore
Machines supply the altar
Where virtuous lives are sacrificed
It must be strange to not have lived
So far into existence
This is not a test of power
This is not a game to be lost or won

So quick to judge, so easily we forget,
What it's like to be dissected
Where feelings are tossed aside
Like a drug it feeds the imagination of minds that go unanalysed
Followers to the leaders of mass hypnotic corruption
That live their lives only to criticise
Where is the invisible line that we must draw
to create individual thought patterns
Prisoners of mental deception be free within singular judgement
Twisting words to control the masses

Controlling their life
Deciding when and how they will die
A victim of someone else's choice
The ones who suffer have no voice
Manipulating destiny
When it comes to living,no one seems to care
But when it comes to wanting out
Those with power,will be there
Prolong the pain
How long will it last?
Suicide machine
A request to die with dignity
Is that too much to ask?
Suicide machine
How easy it is to deny the pain
Of someone else's suffering
(Solo: Schuldiner)
(Solo: Masvidal)
Robbed of natural abilities
In death they now seek tranquility
In a confused state of mind
Extending agony,they must be blind
(Repeat 2nd & 3nd verses)

Mysterious objects of flight on a voyage
To correct what they have done, what we are doing
Perhaps submerged, living in the inner most
Recesses of the planet -- no choice but
To adapt to an underground world
Limiting our passages of thought
Are they the examples of regression
A life form's abusive progression
In a realm so vast, we sit among the Vacnt Planets
So many worlds yet to be seen that once have shared
The same effects that come from greed, mass production
Perhaps submerged, living in the inner most
Recesses of the planet -- no choice but
To adapt to an underground world
Limiting our passages of thought
Are they the examples of regression

Out to find the truth
Behind the myth of
Man eating man
Finding bodies tied
Up to a stake
You cannot understand
Filled with ignorance
You watch them eat your friends
Ask for evidence
A hook right through your tits
Torn to pieces
Trying to escape
They torture you by
Cutting off your cock
When you're dead
They'll feast upon your flesh
Your brains they'll
Eat and chop
Pray if you want
Pathetic rancid cunt
Face reality

People of the earth beware,
It is here in human form
An atrocity laced with greed.
Filled with evil intentions.
Ready to attack
Look to the air for stories to choose,
Who will be your next victim
Profiting on visions of others,
Dark emotions run through its veins
Its motives are false its mind is insane
A distant planet with no signs of life
To become a home for this alien breed.
Scientists of the world unite,
Your services are more than needed
This creature in human form is out of control
Looks can be deceiving, see beyond the shell
Flesh and eyes mean nothing.
The truth, time it will tell
Before you think you fool the world.
What comes around goes around.

Under command a new-born child
Submerged in blood, the dead they smile
Growing possessed, burning inside
A bloody feast for us tonight
The way of death
Is growing hear just take my hand
Skies grow black
Unholy corpses upon their land
The dead they gather around
Praising the child they found
Possessed, the child shall kill
The future is now revealed
Baptised in blood
Destined to burn
Baptised in blood
Reborn they'll learn
Gather around, watch and see
A new creation of misery
Taking the place of the elderly dead

Extending a life with total resistance
To fatal disease, Future methods of science
Replacing what is real by using technology
Population control, Selecting those who will breed
A specific type of form chosen for the unborn
A mind without emotion
Progressive anatomy
Genetic reconstruction
Evolution in production
Producing a race of human machines
A new age of existence the world will see
Replacing what is real by using technology
Population control, Selecting those who will breed
A specific type of form chosen for the unborn
A mind without emotion
Progressive anatomy
Genetic reconstruction

One mind divided into three, For every problem a personality
Each one trying to protect, for the crisis a person they'll select
With sorrow comes reassurance, With confusion there's ignorance
Deny who they are, A fantasy gone gone too far
Protecting the weak points of the mind
Defensive personalities
Violent one minute calm the next
Defensive Personalities
Passed down from generations, Years of pain and complication
Darkness was a punishment, Memories time cannot mend
Brutalised from the day of birth, To reality they can't return
Existing in a world of three lives inside of one
Protecting the weak points of the mind
Defensive personalities
Violent one minute calm the next

Approach the image filled with fear
As the image grows so clear
Future now takes full control
The one whose past you now behold
Touch - the flesh it is so cold
Turn away - you now have been told
Never to return, memories will last
In the future, you'll think about the past
Never to forget, what you have seen
People come to pay respect
Taking pictures of the dead
That is what life comes to be
Once they lived, now they're deceased
Death is oh so strange
The past no one can change
What you can't predict
Is how long you'll exist
Open casket - open casket
Life will never be the same
Death can never be explained
It's their time to go beyond
Empty feeling when they're gone
Never to return, memories will last
In the future, you'll think about the past
Never to forget, what you have seen

In your dreams
The pain is so real
Before the dead
You'll have to kneel
Hear your future screams
See your epitaph
As you scream
The dead they laugh
Pain, growing stronger
Life, exists no longer
Welcome, to a world of pain
Death and despair
Denial of life (Vile denial)
Created by your mind
To overtake your life
Sacrificial suicide
End it with a knife
Much too late
To change your mind
A bloody corpse

Go against the ways and experience pain
Leading a life which one might call insane
Bathe in blood of the one you killed
Slaughter to survive, your needs are fulfilled
Using horrid waste
Some of them will taste
Removing deadly disease
With such primitive ease
Cannibals practicing the art of butchery
Emotions don't exist, pain you can't resist
Primitive ways
Conducting ceremonies to meet the ancient ones
While having an outer body experience
Celebrate the kill of the day

Piling the bodies
Burn them in the night
Skin grows black and withered
Decayed smell will rise
Existence fading
Into ashes
Burn those bodies
To Infernal death
Human coals are burning
Repulsive yet so true
Open graves are scattered
When the work is through
Existence fading
Into ashes
Burn those bodies

Your existence is a script,
Life for you is a performance,
Play out the leading role.
Directing and premeditating every move
That creates the act of manipulation.
Mastering the art of deception.
That increases your sick addiction
It's an overactive imagination
That enslaves your empty shell
Existing in dimensions of addictive obsession
Your script will run short of ideas
The story will soon end itself
People to trust come short in number.
Like a plague your lies spread
Fast across the world
Mastering the art of deception
That increases your sick addiction
It's an overactive imagination

Deep in your mind there is another side
A morbid truth one cannot hide
Unimaginable gore was your past time high
To hear people scream, to watch them die
Return back to the burial site
Face your dreams upon this night
Severed limbs not far away
Spirit past you now obey
Images of the forgotten past
Your first life revealed at last
Now you'll find to your surprise
All the corpses you left behind
A place you feel you've been to before
Where life would turn right into gore
You dig deep down through the years of decay

Freedom is just a breath away
Will you live to see the day
As the heat intensifies
You start to choke, your insides fry
Seizure now sets in
Torture will begin
Twisted bodies lie
Waiting now to die
Choke on it - as your tongue goes down
Choke on it - death is all around
Screaming fills your frenzied mind
No way out no more time
Example made for those to see
Your freedom turned to misery
Word is all around
Of what they have found
Lesson to be learned

Brought to this world to wither away
Naive about the ways of life is what they say
Millions live millions die, more are yet to come
Living skeletons - where they come from
Born dead into this world
To starve and rot in agony
Born dead into this world
It's their choice, why can't you see
Life of misery, soon a corpse you be
As bones show through, nothing you can do
Relief does not exist
When you are born to die
Disease spreads fast across their dying world
Many cemeteries they will have to build
As process goes on for many years to come

Labelled a creation of evil
Ridiculed for their shocking appearance
Sharing both please and pain
Two minds, two hearts, one soul
Separating mentally
An illusion of privacy
Together -- they absorb each other's lives
As One -- they will live and they will die
A living hell has begun
Displayed as a nightmare
Criticized through words and eyes
As they stare
To the normal it seems grotesque
Connected by a bond of flesh
Sharing both please and pain
Two minds, two hearts, one soul
Separating mentally
An illusion of privacy
Together -- they absorb each other's lives
As One -- they will live and they will die

Controlling their lives
Deciding when and how they will die
A victim of someone else's choice
The ones who suffer have no voice
Manipulating destiny
When it comes to living, no one seems to care
But when it comes to wanting out
Those with power, will be there
Prolong the pain
How long will it last?
Suicide machine
A request to die with dignity
Is that too much to ask?
Suicide machine
How easy it is to deny the pain
Of someone else's suffering
Robbed of natural abilities
In death they now seek tranquility
In a confused state of mind
Extending agony, they must be blind
Manipulating destiny
When it comes to living, no one seems to care
But when it comes to wanting out
Those with power, will be there
Prolong the pain
How long will it last?
Suicide machine
A request to die with dignity
Is that too much to ask?

Put your life into their hands
Die for someone else
Now you're in the real world
Where pain and death are felt
The first blood shed does not seem real
Reality is what you feel
Dropping to your knees you pray
God won't make this go away
You will not return alive - left to die
Suffering until the end - left to die
Time stands still as you pass away
No more tomorrow this is you last day
On this fucking earth
Bodies fall onto the ground
Blood flies through the air
Shedded victims lie in pain
Death is never fair
Legs blown off, all hope is lost
A human life is what it cost
Others follow close behind

Always locking the doors to your mind
Escaping the reality that surrounds you
Using faithas an excuse to kill
A sick way of life is now revealed
All the prayers in the world can't help you now
A killer, a taker of life is what you are
Preach the good word
Speak no more prepare to burn
A justified torture?
From this may others learn
The life you took a holy death, a grave mistake
No changing your mind, your life you should pay
Practice what you preach
Your loved one is now deceased
Knowledge is at our hands
Never to understand
Spiritual Healing
Blinded by the twisted ways you live
Kill for religion, will the lord forgive?
Idiocy has stricken your mind

(3:40)
(Instrumental)

Crossing the line into the other side
Emerging as prisoners
To the emptiness of time
To the left and to the right
From behind - they're out of sight
Plunging into a new found age
Of advanced observeillance
A worldwide, foolproof cage
Privacy and intimacy as we know it
Will be a memory
Among many to be passed down
To those who never knew
Living in the pupil of one thousand eyes
Was it overlooked in front of all our faces?
Now, all the mistakes and secrets
Cannot be erased
Viewing the blind complexity
By which laws were justified
To erase simplicity
To the left and to the right
From behind - they're out of sight
Plunging into a new found
Age of advanced observeillance
A worldwide, foolproof cage
Privacy and intimacy as we know it
Will be a memory
Among many to be passed down
To those who never knew

(8:24)
I told you once but I will say it again
when you live the flesh it is the beginning
of the end
it will take you in
it will spit you out
behold the flesh and the power it holds
passion is a poison laced with pleasure bitter sweet
one of many faces that hide deep beneath
it will take you in
it will spit you out
behold the flesh and the power it holds
touch, taste, breathe, consumed
deja-vu. already knew from the first encounter
but know I know to let go of words to speak no more
like a wind upon your face you can't see it
but you know it's there, when beauty shows
its ugly face, just be prepared.
(Solo Schuldiner)
Passion burns like fire carried by the wind
the end of a time, a time to begin
it builds you up one way and tears
you right back down, a time to begin
the end of a time.
Touch, taste, breathe, consumed.

Ashes and promises share a bond
Through the winds of change
Words are blown away
When visions that should be
Are tattooed in your mind
The power to let go
Is sometimes hard to find
The answer cannot be found
In the writing of others
Or the words of a trained mind
In a precious world of memories
We find ourselves confined
Claws so razor sharp
Ripping at the spirit
Promises a potential to hurt
Is anything real?
When forever is to be until
Deep inside, in the world of empty words...
No escaping from those haunting
Empty words...
Do you ever feel it?
A craving that is so strong
To by thought rewind in order to find
Expectations that shined through the doubt
That soon would turn into the price
Of what a word will be worth
When tomorrow comes
To be and we are left
Standing on our own-
And seeing what is real...
The answer cannot be found
In the writing of others
Or the words of a trained mind
In a precious world of memories
We find ourselves confined
Claws so razor sharp

I would describe it as an invisible darkness
casting a shadow, a blinding black
guarded by hope, my soul is kept safe from
the bloody claws.
Look beyond, what vision lets me see
time after time, unneeded misery
holding tight to my dreams
I own no price for you
I grip them tight and hope for sight.
Open my eyes wide to see a moment of clarity
confusion gone, it's in your hands
your turn to ask why.
(Solo Hamm / Schuldiner)
Life is like a mystery
with many clues, but with few anwers
to tell us what it is that we can do to look
for messages that keep us from the truth

With chainsaw in hard
Your death I demand
Slicing through your fat
My always gore attack
Manipulating lies
Is your way of life
Riding on chep glory
Your life is getting gore
Watch you bleed to death
Gasping for last breath
Choking on your blood
I shit onto your guts
Sacrifical cunt
I despire
Sacrifical cunt
No more lies
Slab of fat
Lay on the ground
Ram an axe
Into your mound
Time to pay the gruesome price
A stupid cunt we sacrifice
Watch you bleed to death
Gasping for last breath
Choking on your blood
I shit onto your guts
Sacrifical cunt
I despire
Sacrifical cunt
No more lies
Slab of fat
Lay on the ground
Ram an axe
Into your mound

It comes from the depths
of a place unknown to the
keeper of dreams
if it could then it would steal
the sun and the moon from the sky
beware
Human at sight, monster at heart
don't let it inside it could
tear you right apart
No guilt, it feeds in plain sight
Spirit Crusher
Stay strong and hold on tight
Spirit Crusher
Speaking in killing words
The vicious kind that crush and kill
no mercy, its pleasure to taste
The blood that it bled.
(Solo Schuldiner / Hamm)
When it's time to feed to fulfill
the need to consume a breath
some will rise standing tall
breathing out all the breath from

Trapped inside a life which is not yours
Spirits within causing terror, fear and darkness
Evil dead
Evil dead
Voice speaks out, all will die tonight
Insanity fills your mind, you hear them calling
Covered in blood, all hope is lost

What do you want from me,
What is it you expect
I have spoken my mind from deep inside my soul
Behind the eyes is a place no one will be able to touch
Containing thoughts that cannot be taken away or replaced
You want what is not yours, Jealousy
You want what you cannot have, jealousy
Spiteful harsh words, it comes as no real surprise.
Tell me what you are.
I cannot understand how you seem to exist

Do you feel what I feel, see what I see, hear what I hear
There is a line you must draw between your dream world and reality
Do you live my life or share the breath I breathe
Lies feed your judgment of others
Behold how the blind lead each other
The philosopher
You know so much about nothing at all
Ideas that fall under shadows of theories that stand tall
Thoughts that grow narrow upon being verbally released
Your mind is not your own,
What sounds more mentally stimulating is how you make your choice
So you preach about how I'm supposed to be, yet you don't know your
Own sexuality
Lies feed your judgment of others
Behold how the blind lead each other
The philosopher

I don't mean to dwell
But I can't help myself
When I feel the vibe
And taste a memory
Of a time in life
When years seemed to stand still
I close my eyes
And sink within myself
Relive the gift of precious memories
In need of a fix called innocence
When did it begin?
The change to come was undetectable
The open wounds expose the importance of
Our innocence
A high that can never be bought or sold
Symbolic acts - so vivid
Yet at the same time
We're invisible
Savor what you feel and what you see
Things that may not seem important now
But may be tomorrow
Do you remember when
Things seemed so eternal?
Heroes were so real...
Their magic frozen in time
The only way to learn
Is be aware and hold on tight
I close my eyes
And sink within myself
Relive the gift of precious memories
In need of a fix called innocence
When did it begin?
The change to come was undetectable
The open wounds expose the importance of
Our innocence
A high that can never be bought or sold
Symbolic acts - so vivid
Yet at the same time

Built from blind faith
Passed down from self-induced fantasy
Turn a page to justify
Conjuring power - it opens wide
On your seventh day,
is that how it's done?
Twisting your eyes to perceive
all that you want
To assume from ignorance
Inflicting wounds with your
cross-turned dagger
[Chorus:]
Inside crystal mountain
Evil takes its form
Inside crystal mountain
Commandments are reborn
All the traps are set to confine
All who get in the way of the divine
In sight and in mind of the hypocrite
A slave to the curse forever confined
[Solo: Schuldiner]
Shatter the myth
Don't cut yourself
On your words against
dreams made of steel
Stronger than any faith
That inflicts pain and fear,
is that how it's done?
Twisting your eyes to perceive
all that you want
To assume from ignorance
Inflicting wounds with your
cross-turned dagger

Suicidal preacher hangs himself
Unfaithful servant goes straight to hell
When he returns, your life will end
Down from the skies maggots descend
Least expecting his horrible face
Your decayed guts you soon will taste
Unholy feeling grows deep inside
Choking on your guts you open wide
Regurgitated guts
Satisfy his needs
Regurgitated guts
Now you're gonna bleed
Visions of death are growing clear
Life as a corpse is what you fear
Searching through the graves to be set free
From the curse of the priest that's come to be
So unaware of what's to come
Your guts are his when he is done
Reaching for your cross to end this pain
Your life and blood he will have drained
In his trance
Your eyes they bleed
Your guts come forth
