The Sin Eater

Burn the bowl
Burn the cup
Sins devoured
Offered up

Place the cake
Upon his breast
Dip the ale
From his chest

I eat your death
That you may die
Life eats death
Yet does not die
Eats death
Yet grows with life

Married to your
Ghostly bride
Freedom for
This countryside

Ate your soil
Soul ascends
Absolution
Made amends

I eat your death
That you may die
Life eats death
Yet does not die
Eats death
Yet grows with life

I smoked your
Final cigarette
Burned whatever
Evil's left

Drank your hidden
Whisky ale
Secret passions
Ever frail

I eat your death
That you may die
Life eats death
Yet does not die
Eats death
Yet grows with life

I am the darkness
You cannot see
See yourself
When you see me

I am the terror
You feel inside
Cast me away
From your eyes

I eat your death
That you may die
Life eats death
Yet grows with life
Eats death
Yet grows with life

I eat your death
That you may die
Life eats death
Yet does not die
Eats death
Yet grows with life
