Blood of The Covenant

Our Father who art in Heaven
I'm haunted by your name
If we are born of sin
You have yourself to blame
If our blood is holy water
Why would you want to fill
What the covenant of your alter
Is so eager to spill

I am born of your guilt
The product of your shame
You say this life is a gift
But there is nothing to gain
For the pain I suffer
While I contemplate
Why I exist in the first place

I am the Son of Abraham
I am the sacrificial lamb
BLEGH

Ritual slaughter
For a ghost I can't see
If blood is thicker than water
I am lost at sea

This house was built with all your writings on the walls
All your termites in my skin have fucking swallowed me whole (swallowed me whole)
I don't need your blessings
I don't need your curse
Hindsight is a bitch when you're down in a hearse
HUEH

Your blessing
Is my curse

Condemned for who I love
Damned for who I am
Fuck your absolution
I don't give a good God damn

I'm malignant and I'm fucking sick of it
ARF
