Shadow Of A Living Knife Lyrics - Carving Out The Eyes Of God - Goatwhore

Blackest soul of this deception, 

Instinctive downfall in the hands of justice 

Deny these prayers of the feeble, 

This mental hammer of a new abomination 

Delusional pain of resentment 

Phantom senses of this stolen purpose 

Unknown birth without a reactive sense 

This admiration of evil ways 

Unite the adverse outlook of this faith 

Assassins of this justice to be ripped of skin 

Self-obsessed moral arrogance 

Tyrant goals of these chained ideas 

Committing acts of evil for the name of good 

Fury that burned like the desert sands 

I will not acknowledge this faith of lies 

Beckoning this call for murderous change 

Burrowing through these layers to the surface 

Stolen words that have been forged 

From the neglected myths of knowledge 

Stench of fear from the living reeks of cowardice 

Casting this treason of life 

Into the frozen word of loneliness 

These conquests of hatred are a testimony 

A world in which man spawned 

Great praise that beings the rise tragic 

Towering the skies in this complete wreckage 

Cast into bowels of the abyss 

Mankind created for this penance 

Corruption lays so close to the voice that forces it 

Black bleeding eyes of the pale horse 

Entrance into the passage of war 

These nails that were forged into the cross 

Embracing of thoughts swallowed by the dark 

Never kneel before this crucified image, never crawl before these enslaved intentions 

These cultural evils are overturned for the rise of resenting wars 

Strike out with self loathing infection, denying the cause for this blind redemption 

Lying words from broken truths 

Extract the resistance of change 

Historic beliefs of this leverage 

Begin this tragedy of existence 

Spoken words of this final stand 

Prophets will preach of laws that have damned the birth of man 

These fears are entombed in books, that 

Portray a tale of this revelation 

Seeding the implements of annihilation 

These worn analogies of the dying 

Strangled thoughts with hell's eternal fire 

Handing over the self you deny
