Necropolis Lyrics - Deflorate - The Black Dahlia Murder

Father, I know that you've witnessed a darkness in me 

'Twas spawned in shadows of the old gallow's tree 

I'm but a sad, depraved reflection of our inhumanity 

The warped exaggeration of the lost and darkest of dreams 

Bring forth a wrath of cleansing fire 

Here now in mankind's bleakest hour 

Born of a casket, I'm the heir to a corpse 

I've eyes that see maggots through the thin flesh they bore 

I shall bloody my hands 'til the last breath be torn from me 

So blindly we walk the winds of these plagued streets 

Dead, the once feeling part of me 

O lord divine, please break this silence 

Destroy your race of faceless liars

At the edge of existence 

We, the clays of intention, have ripened in your image 

Ah, the binds of tradition 

Your archaic deception numbs our empty beings 

City that stands on a million graves 

In a world full of hatred, to fear enslaved 

Countless the dead slaughtered in your name 

Not an utter of your voice have you once repaid 

No above, no below, just a man letting go 

When all my earthly desire is disowned 

No screaming sirens should sound 

No revelations profound 

Simply lowered into the ground 

That's just what I'll be, dead in the dirt 

So blindly we walk the winds of these plagued streets 

Dead, the once feeling part of me
